Vanderbilt Kennedy Center produces videos to build vaccine confidence in disability community

The Vanderbilt Kennedy Center has produced three brief videos to build COVID-19 vaccine confidence in the disability community. These videos feature an adult with an intellectual disability and a parent and her daughter with autism, who share their personal experiences, hesitancy, and decision-making related to getting themselves or their child vaccinated, as well as a video with similar themes produced in Spanish. The videos were produced as part of a funding award from the U.S. Administration for Community Living, Dept of Health and Human Services. They also build upon the work of the Tennessee Developmental Disabilities Network and community partnerships.

All three videos may be viewed at: https://vkc.vumc.org/news/4011.
