The DC Vaccine Alliance hosted a powerful virtual summit on building vaccine confidence in today's challenging landscape. Dr. Julie Sweetland (Frameworks Institute) kicked things off with insightful framing strategies focused on mutual exchange, curiosity, and immune system metaphors. Dr. Jonathan Miller then delivered a compelling history of vaccine hesitancy and shared practical clinical tools like presumptive recommendations and persistence.
Our standout panel featured Cherokee Layson-Wolf (University of Maryland School of Pharmacy), Cortlen Yarbrough (DC Community Health Worker), and Dr. Erin Athey (C3 Cares), who shared real-world successes in community trust-building, transparency, and collaboration.
Huge shoutout to all our incredible speakers for their expertise and actionable insights!
