COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence Campaign

The COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence Campaign, updated in March 2022, supports rural community-based groups, faith-based organizations, businesses, public health agencies, schools, and health care organizations in their efforts to develop internal and external communication materials promoting COVID-19 vaccination. 

This toolkit was developed through the Delta Region Community Health Systems Development (DRCHSD) program.

About the Campaign

The "Learn. Understand. Decide." communication campaign is designed to build public confidence in COVID-19 vaccination while acknowledging the need for community members to understand the facts before making a decision. The campaign's messaging helps build understanding and demand for the COVID-19 vaccine and booster, including vaccines for kids ages 5-11. Campaign materials provide an opportunity for a wide range of organizations — trusted voices in their community — to disseminate accurate information.

Campaign Materials

Brochures

Two brochures provide straightforward facts and address common myths and concerns many rural Americans share. One brochure is tailored to parents and answers their questions about getting their kids — especially younger children — vaccinated. 

Print Ads and Posters

Print ads and posters help to promote vaccine confidence at the local level with messaging that encourages individuals to learn the facts about the COVID-19 vaccine so they can make an informed decision for themselves and/or their children.

Social Media Posts

Social media is a powerful way to share the real facts about the COVID-19 vaccine, address common questions, dispel myths, and provide local information about where to get vaccinated. Social media copy includes general education and facts designed to build vaccine confidence, as well as posts targeting parents of kids ages 5 and older.
