Immunize Nevada

Immunize Nevada is a non-profit organization focused on providing immunization promotion and education to improve access to vaccinations and decrease disparities in vaccination coverage in Nevada. Based on its history of federal grant subawards, Immunize Nevada supports statewide and regional efforts to increase immunization rates, particularly among underserved populations.

The federal subawards received by Immunize Nevada have focused on planning and implementing COVID-19 vaccination services, including strike teams and mass vaccination events, as well as developing targeted messaging campaigns to boost vaccine uptake. Additionally, the organization has conducted education and outreach activities related to routine childhood, adolescent, and adult immunizations. These efforts have been supported through federal grants from the Department of Health and Human Services, with the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services serving as the prime grantee and passing funds to Immunize Nevada as a subrecipient. Immunize Nevada has also received AmeriCorps funding to place members in communities across Nevada to assist with local immunization promotion and education activities. Through this previous grant history, Immunize Nevada has developed capabilities in areas such as community health outreach, vaccine accessibility programs, education campaigns, and volunteer engagement around immunization goals.
