Childhood immunizations

RHHD provides important immunizations to children of all ages. From polio to HPV, our team will help make sure your family has the immunizations they need to stay healthy.  

Remember: Some vaccines are required to attend public and private schools, so make sure your child is up-to-date and can start school on time! Vaccines required for entry into Richmond and Henrico County Schools are available without charge to all children regardless of insurance status.  Other vaccines may be available for a fee. Seasonal flu vaccine is available for children six months and older.  

Does your child need a vaccine? Sign up for immunizations today! You can find them at:

• A regular, annual visit with your primary care provider (PCP). If you need help choosing a PCP, visit rhhd.gov/connect-pc to learn more primary care in our communities!
• One of our awesome partners! We have a full list of teams providing free or low-cost immunizations at rhhd.gov/connect-pc.
• RHHD clinics! The health department offers appointments for required childhood vaccines at no cost to families. Students must bring a guardian, a copy of immunization records, and an insurance card if they have one. Call 804-205-3501 to make an appointment for any childhood vaccine or make an appointment at one of our mobile events below for required 7th and 12th grade vaccines.
