Super Shot Inc.: Trusted Messengers - Understanding Trust and How to Answer Any Questions (morning session)
2026-08-19 08:30 - 11:00 (America/New_York) | Do It Best Headquarters, Don Wolfe Conference Center: 1626 Broadway Street, Suite 100, Fort Wayne, IN, 46802, United States
To continue to build trust in vaccines, Super Shot, and local partners, are welcoming Todd Wolynn, MD, MMM and Chad Hermann, PhD ABD of the Trusted Messenger Program to Fort Wayne, IN, on Wednesday, August 19, 2026. They will provide training on “Understanding Trust and How to Answer Any Question”.
Vaccine counseling has become an increasingly critical component of patient care. This training will provide evidence-based communication approaches that strengthen provider patient relationships and methods to respond effectively when patients express questions, concerns, and hesitancy. This event is designed for physicians, healthcare providers, and professionals involved in patient-facing communication — including marketing and communications team members who help shape public understanding and trust.
What you’ll learn:

Evidence-based communication strategies
How to respond to patient questions, concerns, and hesitancy
Methods to strengthen provider-patient trust

This event is an extension of the “Back the Science. Broadcast the Facts.” campaign. In early 2025, local healthcare providers partnered to combat the confusion caused by recent childhood vaccine recommendations from HHS and the CDC. The Allen County Department of Health, Fort Wayne Pediatrics, IU Health Medical Group, Lutheran Health Physicians, Parkview Health, Pediatric Associates Inc., and Super Shot Inc. came together to create a PSA encouraging parents to trust their local doctors when making vaccine decisions. https://youtu.be/C8Ty_g4l97Y?si=ZgVrMnLorHU8HTKb

Boosting Vaccine Access: Tools and Strategies for Advocates
2026-08-26 15:00 (America/New_York)
Families USA with Vaccinate Your Family, Infectious Disease Prevention Network, and Southern Alliance for Public Health Leadership invites you to join our upcoming webinar, Boosting Vaccine Access: Tools and Strategies for Advocates, on Wednesday, August 26 at 3 pm ET. Threats to vaccine access are escalating as the Trump Administration continues to increase distrust in our public health system. Last June, Secretary Kennedy fired all 17 members of CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). The panel was replaced with vaccine-skeptical members who lack expertise. Six months later, the panel voted to change the decades-long universal vaccine recommendation for a Hepatitis B birth dose for newborns, despite no known benefit to delaying the first dose. Efforts to dismantle vaccine recommendations and access remain rampant.
Although changes at the federal level impact vaccine access, there is a unique opportunity for advocates to protect access at the state and local level. In this webinar, we will unveil Families USA’s new vaccine advocacy toolkit to provide advocates with tangible steps to protect vaccine access in your community. We’ll also hear from experts who will break down vaccine policy at the state and local level, as well as a VYF advocate who will share why vaccines are important to her. Join us to walk through advocacy strategies and tools to protect vaccine access.
