Many children in Garland are eligible for free or low-cost vaccinations through the Texas Vaccines for Children Program. The program is funded with federal and state money to provide vaccines to eligible children from birth through age 18. Children who do not have health insurance or who have health insurance that does not cover vaccines qualify, as well as children who are enrolled in Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program.

Parents should bring a child’s immunization records with them. Getting children up to date on vaccinations is one of the most important things parents can do to protect their children’s health — and that of classmates and the community.

Children need different vaccines at different ages. For example, kids who are 4 to 6 years old are due for boosters for four vaccines: DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis), chickenpox, MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) and polio. Older children need Tdap (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis), HPV (human papillomavirus) and MCV/MEN B (meningococcal conjugate) vaccines. College students also need to have current MCV and MEN B vaccinations before enrolling for classes.

Our team is also committed to bringing services to all our neighborhoods and communities. We regularly partner with charitable organizations, places of worship and businesses to provide vaccine pop-up clinics, panels, presentations and more.
