Distributing information on vaccines to parents of students in New York city schools.

This bill would require the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, in collaboration with the Department of Education (DOE), to develop informational materials about vaccines. DOE would also be required to distribute the materials to parents of all New York City public school students, including those enrolled in early childhood programs such as 3-K and pre-K. At a minimum, these materials must include general information on how vaccines work, their public health benefits, their safety, and where to access vaccines required for school attendance.
