ATTENTION: Program and PSA Directors

American Academy of Pediatrics: Dedicated to the Health of All Children

In the next weeks, families will begin making plans for heading back to school. Those plans should include checking to see if their children’s immunizations are up to date. To remind parents about the need for vaccinations, the American Academy of Pediatrics has recorded a series of PSAs on School Vaccinations. This one is a :30. Ideally, this would start airing in mid-July to give parents time to make an appointment with the pediatrician before school begins.

We hope you will support our efforts in creating awareness about these issues by frequently airing the PSA, which you could download. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Susan Martin at 847-434-7131 or SSmartin@aap.org.

Thank you for your help in disseminating this important information.

Sincerely,
John O’Brien
Director of Communications
American Academy of Pediatrics
