Welcome!
April 6, 2021 - (Poughkeepsie, New York) - The Vaccine Appointment Assistance Team (VAAT) announces that they are now an official volunteer organization under the Dutchess County Medical Reserve Corps. The new arrangement will provide outreach and tools to increase vaccine access to the community.
This grass roots group has been serving the greater Hudson Valley community with vaccine information and appointment assistance since the initial vaccine rollout. While the initial outreach was focused solely on seniors, vaccine booking assistance has expanded as eligibility has changed. As of April 6, 2021 all New Yorkers age 16+ will be eligible to receive the Covid-19 vaccination and this group will play an integral role providing much needed outreach to underserved populations and connecting the community to vaccination sites and providing booking assistance to individuals prioritizing the needs of Dutchess County residents. Our volunteers also assist with booking throughout the greater Hudson Valley region.
