Here’s How You Can Help

  1. Contact your state lawmakers — Find your Florida House member at MyFloridaHouse.gov and your Senator at FLSenate.gov. Ask them to oppose any bill that eliminates or weakens school immunization requirements.
  2. Reach out to the Governor’s Office —
    Phone(850) 717-9337 |  Email GovernorRon.Desantis@eog.myflorida.com
    Urge the Governor to support evidence-based public health policies that keep Florida’s classrooms safe and open.
  3. Speak locally — Attend your next school board or PTA meeting. Share why maintaining vaccine protections matters for students, teachers, and medically fragile families.
  4. Share credible information —
    • CDC – Vaccines
    • AAP – Immunizations
    • Florida Department of Health

Public health is not politics — it’s protection.

Every call, email, and respectful conversation helps ensure Florida’s children remain safe, healthy, and free from preventable disease.
