The Immunization Action Coalition (IAC) is an organization that distributes information about vaccines and the diseases they prevent.[2] In partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), their headquarters is located in Saint Paul, Minnesota, with member coalitions in the United States and Canada. Paul Offit[3] serves on the Advisory board.

Mission

Having the goal of providing the public with information about immunization,[4] the IAC has three current functions:

  1. creation and distribution of weekly editions of IAC Express to IAC's email subscribers;
  2. publication of the feature "Ask the Experts," in which CDC and IAC immunization experts answer questions from vaccine providers; and
  3. creation of new immunization education materials designed to respond to the needs of immunization providers, parents, and patients.[4]

Activities

The coalition's Web site offers "Unprotected People Stories" about the consequences of vaccine avoidance,[5] and "Talking about Vaccines" which discusses general vaccine-related topics.[6] In addition, the coalition gives information on vaccines through social networking[7] and other popular sources of information, such as the "Dear Abby" newspaper columns and letters to the editor. In 2012, the coalition launched a campaign to promote the fourth edition of The Vaccine Handbook: A Practical Guide for Clinicians.[8] The World Health Organization lists the IAC on their Global Vaccine Safety page, noting the availability of their materials in various languages such as Korean, Vietnamese, and Turkish.[9] They promote Hepatitis B vaccination programs for children ranging in age from 0–18 years of age.[10] The IAC is also a member of the WHO-led project Vaccine Safety Net.[11]
