title: Remove vaccination barriers for children 12 to 24 months.
abstract: Vaccinations were one of the top ten public health achievements of the 20th century, yet currently more than 900,000 U.S. children aren't properly immunized. The purpose of this study was to increase compliance rates in children 12 to 24 months from 38% to 80%. This was done by determining what factors impacted compliance and by instituting an immunization surveillance program.
