All children attending public and private schools, pre-schools, Head Start and certified child care facilities in Oregon must have up-to-date immunization documentation, or have an exemption, on February 21 to remain in school. Health district in the state have been sending letters to the parents of children who need additional immunizations, indicating which are needed. Parents seeking immunizations for their child can contact their primary care provider, county health department, or call 211 for information about where to go in your area. Parents wanting a new nonmedical exemption for their child must provide documentation that they have received education about the benefits and risks of immunization on a Vaccine Education Certificate. Parents can get education from a health care practitioner or from watching an online vaccine education module. Additional information on school immunizations can be found at the Oregon Immunization Program website at healthoregon.org.
