Press release

Los Angeles, CA — The pandemic has disproportionately impacted the Northeast San Fernando Valley especially in working class, Latino neighborhoods. With many residents working in essential jobs and living in crowded, multigenerational households the virus has spread quickly through the community. Councilwoman Monica Rodriguez has worked to protect those in her district from the beginning of the pandemic by providing personal protective equipment (PPE) to slow the spread.

Councilwoman Rodriguez continues to advocate for those hardest hit by COVID-19 and is proud to announce that starting Tuesday, March 2, 2021 pop-up vaccine sites will be open for Council District 7 residents who are eligible.

Eligible groups include food service workers, farm workers, animal agriculture workers, emergency services workers, education and childcare workers, healthcare workers, long-term care facilities residents and seniors aged 65 and older. ID is required to show that you are a Council District 7 resident (Pacoima, Sylmar, North Hills, Mission Hills, Lakeview Terrace, Sunland, Tujunga and Shadow Hills).

Appointments are required and all pop-up vaccine sites are walk-up only. Residents are instructed to call the corresponding office phone number below for any questions or to set up an appointment.
