Vaccinate Before You Graduate-Vaccines for Teens and College Students

Vaccines are not just for babies and young children. As children get older, the protection provided by some early childhood vaccines can wear off. Children also generally develop risks for more diseases as they approach their teen years. For these reasons, older children – including teens - need to receive recommended vaccinations. Talk to your child’s health care provider about his or her current health and need for vaccinations.
