Pierce County Immunization Coalition

Description

The Pierce County Immunization Coalition (PCIC) was founded in 1998 with the goal to protect Pierce County residents across the lifespan from vaccine-preventable diseases. This is accomplished, in part, by raising immunization rates through provider and community education and creating awareness of what vaccine preventable diseases are. The PCIC has a rich partnership with local pediatricians and family medicine physicians, as well as community pharmacies, local health departments, local schools, and large medical organizations.

Mission

Promote timely immunizations across the lifespan.

Goals

Focus on educating adult patients and providers about adult vaccines that are recommended.
