ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. – A new pilot program is launching in Orange County next week. Leaders said community canvassers will go door-to-door in neighborhoods to help more people get the COVID-19 vaccine.
The program will be in partnership with the State of Florida and FEMA. County officials said the concern is that some communities don’t have proper access to a vaccination site or may not have enough information.
The goal of the program is to have trusted members of the community help get eligible individuals vaccinated inside their homes.
