As a non-profit organization, PMCH has worked with the community promote vaccines through various programs. The College Health Initiative is a program at the Partnership funded through the New Jersey Department of Health.

Our Step Up Vax Up: Campus Health Awareness Campaign is a statewide initiative to promote peer-to-peer COVID-19 education through digital content creation.

The goal of our program is to combat vaccine misinformation and hesitancy among students and staff and promote overall campus health & wellness.

Students are encouraged to highlight health equity across campus and the importance of getting vaccinated. The submissions  should also address misinformation and where to get credible vaccine information.Submissions can be sent in the form of a video (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram Reel), podcast, recorded episode, or original social media post.

Incentives will be awarded to the top-rated student submissions

There is a grand prize of $5,000, a secondary prize of $2,500, and a third place  prize of $1,500. Faculty and staff are encouraged to support student participation for a chance to receive a $1,000 School Staff Champion prize . Please see our website for ways faculty and staff can be involved in the campaign!

 

We want to connect with every campus.

We will be available to provide programming, host workshops, attend tabling events and extend the reach of your current immunization outreach and education.
