TO EVERYONE WHO NEED VACCINATION RIGHT NOW  
FEMA is asking for your help in getting people vaccinated at the 
New York City Brooklyn and Queens Community Vaccination Centers. 

Their mission is to speak with organizations like yours and provide direct information concerning the vaccination process and the opportunities to get people vaccinated at the New York City Vaccination Centers in Brooklyn (Medgar Evers College) and Queens (York College).
 
They are looking at ways to help underserved populations from the age of 16 years old and older in accordance with the Governor’s Vaccination Program.
 
I would ask that you solicit your members/congregants who wish to be vaccinated and develop a list of names, telephone numbers, and zip codes where they live and provide that list to our contact at FEMA, Kimberly Grisham (kimberly.grisham@fema.dhs.gov).
 
They will then have staff at the vaccination centers call them directly, register them on the NY DOH website, and provide you and the individuals a specific date for vaccination of your choosing.
 
They can only offer this through April 27th due to the limited time to secure the first vaccine and schedule and administer the second vaccine dose before the intended end date of the New York City Community Vaccination Centers.

If your organization is interested, please contact right now Kimberly Grisham at
