We have recently expanded our Vaccine Matchmaker program to help individuals with disabilities find vaccine appointments. We are a team of over 300 volunteers located throughout New Jersey, working around the clock to secure appointments for those in need. We will only ask for the basic information necessary to secure an appointment (name, DOB, email, phone and address) and will never ask for any insurance information or social security numbers.
