Vaccination is protection

Immunizations or vaccinations provide protection against serious diseases. They also protect our loved ones and community.

Healthy children equals a healthy community

Keeping up to date on immunizations starts during infancy. The State of Minnesota requires certain vaccinations for children enrolling in K-12 school.

Trauma statement

Acknowledging past trauma

The City of Minneapolis acknowledges past trauma. We empathize with those who have historically or personally experienced discriminatory treatment.

Many in our community have suffered from years of:

  • Disinvestment
  • Biased treatment
  • Lack of access

These experiences have:

  • Reinforced cycles of trauma
  • Created a lack of trust towards government and health care

Building trust

We want to:

  • Build relationships that help to heal the trauma of past experiences
  • Listen to you
  • Work with you to build trust and equitable health outcomes

The decision to vaccinate or not, is a very personal one.

  • We want to give you the most up-to-date information.
  • Whether or not you decide to be vaccinated is up to you.
