These Vaccination Clinics will be held at the Knights of Columbus Hall on the following dates:

(Please note: previously announced Vaccination Clinic for 5-11 year age group on December 3rd, has been cancelled)

*A parent/guardian must accompany the child in order to provide informed consent. It is recommended to keep other children/family members at home in an effort to keep the number of people within the vaccination clinic at a minimum.

If a parent/guardian cannot attend the vaccination clinic with their child, a written consent form must be completed and sent with the adult accompanying the child.

A consent form can be downloaded by clicking here.

As previously announced by the Kahnawake Education Center, vaccinations for this age group are not mandatory to attend any school in Kahnawà:ke. However, it is highly encouraged to have your children vaccinated to further decrease their level of risk of COVID-19 complications.
