IMMUNIZATION PROGRAM
Vaccines (immunizations) are one of the most effective ways to prevent illness. By staying up to date on vaccinations, you can help protect yourself, your family, and your community from a wide array of potentially serious illnesses.
Our immunization program protects and promotes the health of all people in Kitsap County by providing up-to-date vaccine information to the public, supporting providers with training, education, and resources, and responding to vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks.

NO-COST IMMUNIZATIONS FOR CHILDREN
The Vaccine for Children Program provides vaccines to children under the age of 19 at no cost to you. Some providers may charge a fee to administer the vaccine to your child, but most insurance plans cover this fee. If your insurance does not cover the fee and you are unable to pay it, by law you cannot be billed for these fees, and they will never go to collections.
Follow the links below to learn more about vaccines recommended for children. Some vaccines are required for school or childcare attendance:
- Required Childcare Vaccines, 2022-2023
