The Tarrant County Community Engaged Alliance Against COVID-19 is hosting a vaccine registration event on Saturday, March 13 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., CDT at the Eastside YMCA in Fort Worth.

North Texan residents can also sign up online with their county or any county convenient to them. The county will then contact you when it is your turn for the vaccine and tell you where to go.

Volunteers are needed for the Fort Worth shifts from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. or 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., CDT. Volunteers can also work all day.

“It’s important for our North Texas residents to know how these vaccines are very well tested and more closely examined than many things presently on the market,” said Stephen Love, president/CEO of the DFW Hospital Council. “Bringing an end to this pandemic is a job for everyone—not just our healthcare heroes. Our dedicated scientists have provided us a solution. Now it’s our responsibility to take advantage of that solution as quickly as possible.”
