Social Story: What to Expect When I Visit the Immunization Clinic (English & Spanish)


The Midland County Department of Public Health is proud to announce that we have been certified as a Most Valuable Provider (MVP) by the Michigan Vaccination Partners. 


The Michigan Vaccination Partners is a collaborative group consisting of The Autism Alliance of Michigan, Disability Rights Michigan, and the Michigan Developmental Disabilities Institute. 


The vision of the Michigan Vaccination Partners is to create healthy communities for all. "To achieve this vision and sustain our efforts long-term, we are inviting health providers to become a Most Valuable Provider (MVP) and offer vaccination and health clinic experiences that are accessible and welcoming to all people across Michigan".


To achieve MVP certification, the Midland County Department of Public Health staff completed MVP Disability training, ensured ADA compliance within the clinic, and assembled a sensory-friendly space within the clinic to create a welcoming environment.
