The Region of Waterloo and KidsAbility will once again team up to provide Special Accommodation Clinics to make it easier for some children to get the COVID-19 vaccine.

The two organizations first did so last November.

Those between six months and 17 years of age will be able to receive the vaccine in a sensory-friendly environment.

Three clinic dates have been confirmed so far:

  • Saturday, September 17
  • Saturday, September 24
  • Saturday, October 1

The rest of the details were contained in a news release from the region:

Anyone who feels their child requires the additional support of a sensory-friendly clinic is encouraged to contact the Region of Waterloo for a referral form: phecovidimms@regionofwaterloo.ca or call 519-575-4400.

As more Special Accommodation Clinic dates become available they will be posted on the Region of Waterloo website: Get a Vaccine - Region of Waterloo.
