People Experiencing Homelessness Now Eligible for COVID-19 Vaccine

People Experiencing Homelessness Now Eligible for COVID-19 Vaccine

PEH Now eligible for COVID-19 Vaccine

***March 25, 2021****

All people experiencing homelessness are now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination in Pima County.  People experiencing homelessness have three options to access the COVID-19 vaccine:

Homeless Vaccination Pop-Ups:  El Rio Community Health Center is conducting vaccination pop-up events at community shelters, day centers, and meal sites.  Approximately 200 doses of the Johnson & Johnson single-dose vaccine are being distributed to people experiencing homelessness at pop-up events weekly.

Vaccination pop-up events are only for people experiencing homelessness and are not published.  These events are held in congregate shelters and other places people experiencing homelessness already gather.  If you are not experiencing homelessness, you will not be able to receive a vaccine at these events.  If you are a local shelter or day program and interested in learning more about these events, please email tpch@tucsonaz.gov.

Scheduling through Pima County Health Department: People experiencing homelessness can also schedule appointments for vaccination at any of the Pima County Health Department’s three main vaccination sites (below).  If you schedule an appointment at one of these locations, you will likely receive the Pfizer or Moderna two-dose vaccine. This will require you to make an appointment for a second dose within 2-4 weeks (depending on the vaccine you receive).

Scheduling through State of Arizona (University of Arizona): People experiencing homelessness can also schedule vaccine appointments at the State of Arizona’s University of Arizona vaccine center.  If you schedule an appointment at one of these locations, you will likely receive the Pfizer or Moderna two-dose vaccine.  This will require you to make an appointment for a second dose within 2-4 weeks (depending on the vaccine you receive).

Schedule by phone: call 1-844-542-8201
