Getting vaccinated to prevent COVID-19 is the most important thing we can do for ourselves and our loved ones. However, it has been difficult for many people with disabilities to get vaccinated. The Disability Information and Access Line, a national call center that is unique in its kind, can assist.
DIAL connects callers and provides information about vaccination locations in their area. It can also help with the often complicated process of getting to and from vaccination appointments. Do you want to know if it’s possible to receive an in-home vaccination? DIAL can assist with this by connecting you with local advocacy organizations who will be able to help you determine which sites are most accessible for persons with disabilities.
