JOB SUMMARY

The Community Health Center, Inc. is proud to offer COVID-19 vaccine Services throughout the State of Connecticut.

As the recipient pool expands, at the direction of the State, to include front line workers, those at increased risk for severe COVID-19 illness and the general public, CHCI will continue to expand its state wide vaccination efforts.
