California HPV Vaccine Week
August 6th-12th, 2023
California HPV Vaccine week is an annual observance held the first full week of August. The goal of this campaign is to increase awareness of the HPV vaccine and promote the vaccination of adolescents ages 9-13. California HPV Vaccine Week is a great way for families, providers, coalitions supporting children’s health, and local health departments to get out the message about the importance of the HPV vaccine as cancer prevention.
Join the Campaign
During the week of August 6th-12th, share this content with your community to communicate the importance of HPV vaccination.
We’ve provided suggested content developed by partner organizations and California HPV Vaccination Roundtable members that include video testimonials, shareable images, and text that can be used on social media platforms, websites, newsletters, and blogs. Whether you do a little or a lot, please help us track our efforts by using #caHPVvaxweek and #CaliforniaHPVfree on social media and emailing info@cahpvroundtable.com about other initiatives.
