The Immunization Partnership - TIP

Since 2002, TIP has worked to promote the prevention of vaccine-preventable diseases in Houston, Texas.

TIP provides community education, advocating for evidence-based public policy and supporting immunisation best practices.

TIP’s Immunization Champion project that took place in 22 clinics over four years raised immunisation rates from 3% to 100%. TIP also helped establish a robust immunisation coalition-building project.

TIP has designed and promoted many positive immunisation bills, and worked with The J.A.M.I.E. Group and the Williams family to make the Jamie Schanbaum / Nicolis Williams Act law in Texas in 2011. This law now means all new college students will be vaccinated against the disease.
