Project Number (if applicable) {Empty}

Summarize purpose of the contract, including why it was necessary: The Multicultural Autism Action Network will partner with the Autism Society of Minnesota and Hennepin County Healthcare to continue a series of sensory friendly vaccine events, focusing outreach efforts on multicultural communities. There is a need for sensory friendly events because there are many barriers to getting autistic children vaccinated: fear of medical procedures, sensory overload from being in a clinical setting, or simply just feeling overwhelmed. The goal is to eliminate as many of those barriers as possible, provide a source of reliable science-based information, and provide a vaccination option for kids and families who may need a little extra time and space.
