HPV Immunization Summit


Campaign Summary and Summit

 

For 2016, the Florida Immunization Summit will focus on the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and the benefits of its vaccine as a cancer preventer.

 

In an effort to make Florida HPV free, the partners of Florida's Leading Immunization Network of Coalitions (FL LINC) are coordinating a four-month campaign to increase knowledge and usage of the HPV vaccine. The campaign will include:

·        January Kickoff: "Someone You Love" viewing and discussion (January 28th in New Port Richey)

·        February: HPV Summit (February 11-12 in St. Petersburg)

·        February-March: Statewide webinars, workshops and community events

·        April Finale: Simultaneous statewide events, film screenings and advertisement to wrap up the campaign during World Immunization Week

 

Information on the 2016 campaign will be regularly updated on this website. You can register for the February summit now by clicking on the registration box above. If you have questions or need more information on how to get involved, please contact Andrea Peaten at andrea.peaten@flhealth.gov or Samantha Staley at samantha.statley@flhealth.gov.
