Vaccines for Children Program

The Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program is a U.S. government initiative that provides free vaccines to children who might not otherwise receive them due to lack of insurance or financial resources. This program ensures that vaccines are accessible to all children, protecting them from serious diseases. It covers children up to age 18, including those on Medicaid or without health insurance. By facilitating vaccinations, the VFC Program promotes public health and helps prevent outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases, ensuring healthier communities for everyone.
