The vision of NEWIC is to eliminate vaccine preventable diseases through 100% immunization rate and to establish a network of providers and consumers who share the common interest of increasing immunization levels in our communities.
The Northeast Wisconsin Immunization Coalition (NEWIC) is a regional partnership focused on promoting immunization and supporting public health efforts across Northeast Wisconsin. Established in 2000, the coalition brings together public health agencies, healthcare providers, and community organizations to collaborate on education, resource sharing, and outreach related to vaccines.
