The topic of childhood vaccines is on parents’ minds more than ever but also has become more sensitive for educators to discuss with families than many other concerns.

To explore this challenge, Penn State Extension Better Kid Care invites you to join Dr. Timothy Shope, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, and Tiffany Humbert-Rico and Richard Quartarone, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for “Navigating Conversations with Families about Childhood Vaccines” on Wednesday, May 31, at 1 p.m.

The webinar will dive into why these conversations are uncomfortable at times and how professionals can approach them in ways that stay true to fact-based information while also preserving their relationships with families.
