COVID-19 is killing millions of people, especially people of color. The good news is that we now have safe and effective vaccines. These vaccines teach your body to develop natural defenses to fight the virus. Getting more than 75% of our community vaccinated is our best chance of ending public health policies like distancing and masking. This will help stop spread of the virus. Get the vaccine to protect yourself, your family, and our community.

The objective of this partnership is to build awareness regarding the importance of being vaccinated for COVID-19. This is especially important for vulnerable populations, such as the elderly and people of color, who have been disproportionately impacted. 

Now that multiple COVID-19 vaccines are becoming more broadly available, we encourage every Branford citizen to get vaccinated as soon as possible. Effective April 1st, all individuals 16 and older are eligible to schedule appointments for COVID vaccines. Appointments can be made by phone at the Vaccine Appointment Assist Line at (877) 918-2224 or through the following resources:
