Childhood Immunizations
Tri-City Health Center provides free immunizations for uninsured children. No appointment is needed to get doses for the vaccines—walk-ins are welcome. The only requirement for patients is to bring in their immunization records with them to TCHC.
In order to promote the health and safety of being immunized, TCHC is hosting a biannual Children Immunization Fair. The purpose of this fair is to bring in new families and to enroll qualified families to MediCal and other such low-cost healthcare plans. Patients must also bring their immunization records to these events.
