County Health Department offers back-to-school immunizations

The summer has just begun, but it’s not too early to start thinking about back-to-school vaccinations for your kids. The Westchester County Health Department
will be offering back-to-school immunizations to students who qualify at the county clinic in White Plains. Call the Health Department at 995-5800 to find
out if you qualify for an appointment.

“Getting our children vaccinated is one thing we all can do as parents to keep our kids safe when they return to school in September,” County Executive
George Latimer said. “It is our responsibility to make sure that our kids are up to date on their vaccinations, and our Health Department is helping to create
a safe and healthy future for Westchester County’s youth.”
