Setting up a Successful Clinic in Your Community Doug Shenson M.D. M.P.H. SPARC (Sickness Prevention Achieved through Regional Collaboration)

Why Vote & Vax? More than 120 million Americans vote in national elections. Approximately 70% the voters are over age 50. Fewer than 40% of adults ages receive an annual flu shot. Polling places are mandated to be maximally accessible.

Local Elections When: Tuesday after the first Monday in November. This year: November 6, 2012 They may be run by counties, cities, or townships. They observe strict regulations.

Getting Started … Go to our website:

Next steps … Download the Vote & Vax Resource Guide Decide whether you would like to establish one or more Vote & Vax clinics at: Polling sites (in close proximity) Other community locations (senior center, etc.) Retail outlets

For clinics at polling sites … Contact your local election authority. Search “local government” in phone book Consult the National Association of State Election Directors at Educate yourself about local regulations.

Choosing the Right Polling Place Consider the need Which communities have low vaccination rates Consider operational elements Is there parking? Is there registration space? Is mobility to and from the polling place easy?

Outreach and Publicity Flyers and posters Public service announcements (PSAs) for radio and local cable TV Press kits for local papers Call-in radio show (be a guest—and bring a local election official)

Vote & Vax Principles No partisan political activities. Not a “Get Out the Vote” initiative. Not for the exclusive benefit of voters. Clinic accessible after people have voted.
