Immunization Action Coalition

The Immunization Action Coalition (IAC) is a non-profit organization that works to prevent disease by creating and distributing educational materials for health professionals and the public that enhance delivery of safe and effective immunization services and increase their use. The coalition also facilitates communication within the broad immunization community, including parents, concerning issues of safety, efficacy, and the use of vaccines. The Hepatitis B Coalition, a program of IAC, promotes hepatitis B vaccination for all children 0-18 years of age, HBsAg screening for all pregnant women, hepatitis B testing and vaccination for risk groups, and education and treatment for people who are chronically infected with hepatitis B.
