Dear Disability Community Members: 

Please find this message from our colleagues at the SF LightHouse. The wider community referenced includes people in all disabled and Deaf communities. Note that ASL interpreting will be available.

From the San Francisco LightHouse: Members of the LightHouse community, their friends and families, and members of the wider community are invited to receive either their first or second COVID-19 vaccine booster shot on Tuesdays, June 7 and June 14. Each vaccination clinic runs between 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm at our 1155 Market Street San Francisco headquarters.
 
To register to attend the LightHouse vaccination clinic at 1155 Market Street, you will first need to make an appointment by calling 415-694-7648 or by emailing info@lighthouse-sf.org. Voicemail messages can be left for callback outside of these hours.

This line is available to speakers of both Spanish and English. Other language interpreters are available once you leave a voicemail requesting a callback.
 
Please note: Any COVID-19 vaccines can be used for booster vaccination, regardless of the vaccine product used for primary immunization. Both Pfizer & Moderna booster vaccines will be available during the two clinic dates.
 
These clinics are for booster vaccinations only and the clinics are for people ages 18 and older. Vaccines for children ages 5-11 years old will not be available at the LightHouse. However, staff can refer to other sites in the city offering pediatric vaccines.
