Frequently Asked Questions
What exemptions are available for students in PA?
Students in K-12 can exercise their right to vaccine exemptions based on medical, religious, or strong moral/ethical beliefs. A small handful of private schools that receive no state funding do not accept non-medical exemptions, but most schools accept exemptions with no problem. See the Resources page for more information.
My employer says that I will get fired if I don’t take a vaccine. What can I do?
Please visit our Resources page for details on this topic.
How can I find a pediatrician who gives informed consent and supports all choices?
It is certainly troubling that most, if not all, pediatricians in PA are engaged in medical discrimination against families who delay or decline even one vaccine. Family practices may be less strict with these requirements. The best way to find a provider near you who respects parental rights to informed consent is through connecting with a local PCIC chapter group.
Take Part in Legislative Advocacy
