Jeffco Public Health Community Immunizations 1st Saturdays Jan-Mar

Jefferson County Public Health’s (JCPH) Immunization and Emergency Preparedness Programs are partnering with the Arvada Fire Department and the Colorado Children’s Immunization Coalition to provide Shots For Tots and Teens, community-based immunization clinics for children and adolescents, here in Jefferson County. Shots for Tots and Teens’ goal is to make sure every child receives the immunizations needed to keep them healthy.

The program offers low- and no-cost Saturday immunization clinics throughout the year in Aurora, Denver, and Arvada with the help of experienced immunization public health nurses, fire medics, paramedics, health care and community volunteers. Each clinic also offers fun activities for kids, including fire engine and ambulance tours.

All recommended immunizations are available for children ages birth through 18 years. No appointment is necessary, and clients are served on a first come, first serve basis. Parents or legal guardians must be present for minors and are urged to bring immunization records to each visit. During busy Shots For Tots and Teens clinics, some patients may be referred for an appointment to their local public health department if maximum capacity has been reached.

The upcoming JCPH Shots for Tots and Teens clinics will be on Saturdays from 10:00a.m. to 1:00p.m. on January 7, February 4, and March 4, 2017. Shots for Tots and Teens is held at Arvada Fire Station #2, 5250 Oak St. Arvada, CO 80002. Fire station #2 is accessible by RTD bus line #100 to Miller Street and Ridge Road stop, and beginning in October, light rail G line to the Arvada Ridge stop.

For more information, or to make an appointment at one of our regularly scheduled immunization clinics offered Monday-Friday, please call 303-239-7078.
