Mobile Outreach Vaccination & Education
MOVE-UP Program Brings Vaccines to Rural Communities
The MOVE-UP (Mobile Outreach Vaccination and Education for Underserved Populations) program uses Mobile Health Units (MHUs) to bring COVID-19 vaccines to rural communities that otherwise have access challenges. The program started in small farming communities in Maricopa County and has since moved to deliver vaccination events in Cochise County and Santa Cruz County, with other counties to follow. The data infographics below show total doses broken down by vaccine type and county, with further analysis by ethnicity, occupation, and other factors.
