The Chicago Department of Public Health (CDPH) is teaming up with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL) to encourage parents to get their children vaccinated before the start of the school year in September. The back-to-school immunization program features a bilingual public education campaign and vaccines with no out-of-pocket cost at locations across the city. CDPH’s goal is to get all Chicago’s students up to date when entering school. As part of the campaign, CDPH will also provide vaccines at no out-of-pocket cost to residents at parks, schools and other community locations across the city. For more information on CDPH back-to-school immunizations, visit CityofChicago.org/Health.
