Beginning this month, Triton College will serve as a Point of Distribution (POD) site for COVID-19 vaccinations. Cook County Health (CCH) will administer vaccinations Monday through Saturday by appointment only. “Triton College is here to serve, and this is just another example of how we fulfill our mission to serve the community,” said Mark Stephens, Chairman of the Triton College Board of Trustees. “There are different ways for a community college to serve its communities, and we take pride in meeting needs in this capacity.

“I am pleased that Triton College can serve as a vital resource at such a critical time,” said Mary-Rita Moore, President of Triton College. Triton worked with Cook County and identified approximately 8,000 square feet of space on the south end of the T Building on Triton’s East Campus to use for administering vaccines. Appointments can be made at vaccine.cookcountyil.gov. Individuals without internet access or who need assistance scheduling can call (833) 308-1988 (from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday – Friday).
