Join the National Vaccine Month of Action
July is a month-long mobilization effort in support of the Department of Health & Human Services' We Can Do This campaign to ensure as many people as possible receive at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot by July 4th. All month long, there will be events and actions you can take -- phone banks, text banks, and in-person events -- to increase access, confidence, and equity for the COVID-19 vaccine across the country. Find an event near you here.

"As COVID-19 vaccines become more widely available we encourage everyone to seek the facts about how the vaccine works and understand that other measures, such as wearing a mask in public, will still be necessary. Our health care workers have been heroically caring for COVID-19 patients and urgently need everyone to do their part to ensure we can finally overcome the virus,"
Sr. Mary Haddad, president and CEO, Catholic Health Association of the United States.
