Sedgwick County Health Department Ambassador Program

WHAT IS AN AMBASSADOR?

Sedgwick County Health Department (SCHD) Ambassadors are volunteers with a passion for engaging with their community to help build vaccine confidence and knowledge, correct misinformation and counter myths about COVID-19.

Ambassadors help spread the message that safe and effective COVID-19 vaccines prevent severe illness and save lives. They share this message with friends, neighbors and community members at places of worship, book clubs or hobby groups, coffee shops, libraries, community centers and in many other settings where people live, work, and play.

Ambassadors receive free training that equips them to share knowledge about COVID-19 and COVID-19 vaccines and to engage in conversations in a respectful and empathetic way.
