Residents across several New Jersey communities will have an opportunity to receive free vaccinations and health services this fall through a series of public wellness events. 
According to a press release sent by Wellpoint New Jersey, the health organization is partnering with Virtua Health, Children of America, and Hackensack Meridian Health to sponsor “flu festivals” offering vital community resources.
At each event, attendees can receive flu, RSV, and shingles vaccinations, along with health screenings, wellness information, and free giveaways.
Organizers encourage participants to bring their insurance cards if available, though the clinics are open to all.
