No Appointment Necessary for FDOH Vaccine Sites in Broward

Appointments are no longer required at any COVID-19 vaccination site run by Florida Department of Health (FDOH) in Broward. Other vaccination sites, such as retail pharmacists, continue to require appointments.

All Floridians are eligible to receive any COVID-19 vaccine approved for emergency use by the Food and Drug Administration, which is now 12+. If you know someone who may be hesitant about getting the vaccine, you can become a Vaccine Ambassador by talking about your experience and the importance of achieving “herd immunity" so all our lives can return to normal.

While the number of residents getting vaccinated increases, health experts still advise wearing a mask in public, practicing social distancing, and washing hands frequently.

Vulnerable Population Registry

After a hurricane or other emergency, residents may experience prolonged power and phone outages. Elevators may not be functioning. Residents may not be able to leave their apartments to get assistance or let others know that they are in need. The Vulnerable Population Registry is a tool that municipalities can use to help evaluate resident needs in their communities and assist in planning a response in an emergency. While registering in the database is not a guarantee that you will be provided services or placed on a priority list for responders, it will help responders be better prepared to meet your needs in a recovery.

You should pre-register in the Vulnerable Population Registry if you are at risk due to a disability, frailty or health issue, regardless of age, AND you elect to stay at home in the event of a hurricane or other emergency. Registration should be in advance, and before a storm threatens. The Registry is used by municipalities for planning purposes only, and is not a guarantee of assistance. Register online, or by calling the Broward County Call Center at 311 or 954-831-4000 (TTY 954-831-3890), or by contacting your municipality’s emergency management agency.

  • Broward County Online COVID-19 Emergency Rental Assistance

    A new Broward County program can pay up to 12 months in past due rent and utilities if renters have experienced financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Broward County Commission has launched an Emergency Rental Assistance program for residents who have been impacted by Covid-19 and meet certain income requirements. This Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), which provides the County with $53 million in U.S. Treasury Department funds, is different than previous programs offered, so even if renters were not qualified for, or elected not to participate in, other rental assistance programs, they should take a moment to review this new assistance.

    ERAP provides up to 12 months of past due rent and utility payments (back to March 13, 2020) for low-income rental households that have experienced financial hardships as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, eligible households can receive up to three months of future payments if needed to ensure housing stability, and if funds are available.

    Tenants and landlords must work together to participate in the program, and funds will be paid directly to landlords/rental management companies and utility providers.

    The county has made various resources available to assist in the application process, including local intake centers where help is offered in person, as well as a call center staffed with multilingual English/Spanish/Haitian Creole professionals from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday.

    Applications are now being accepted! www.Broward.org/RentAssistance
