This page contains immunization resources for Ukrainian arrivals through the Uniting for Ukraine program, their healthcare providers, local health departments, and community partners.
Ukrainians who have arrived through the Uniting for Ukraine program must have completed the online tuberculosis and vaccine attestation on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website within 90 days of arrival in the United States.
To schedule an appointment for required vaccinations or tuberculosis screening, visit the Refugee Health Assessment Program County Clinics page to check if your county has a Refugee Health clinic.
If your county does not have a Refugee Health clinic, these resources may assist with free or low-cost immunizations:
- Some local health departments offer free or low-cost vaccines or may have information about other providers in the community.
- Vaccines for Children (VFC) and Vaccines for Adults (VFA) providers offer free or low-cost vaccines for eligible children and adults.
- Visit My Turn to book your vaccine appointments.
- Local pharmacies also offer immunizations for older children and adults, but the cost is typically higher than the locations mentioned above. Check with the pharmacy about specifics, including cost and availability of immunization for certain ages.
