Requirements for Non Medical Immunizations Exemptions
There will be two methods for submitting a non medical (personal/religious belief) exemption for immunizations. Families can choose to:
1. Submit the downloadable Nonmedical Exemption Form WITH a signature from an immunizing provider who is a medical doctor, doctor of osteopathic medicine, advanced practice nurse or delegated physician’s assistant.
OR
2. Complete the CDPHE Online Immunization Education Module and provide the certificate of completion. Both the form for Option 1 and the Education Module for Option 2 are available at the CDPHE Vaccine Exemptions website at https://cdphe.colorado.gov/vaccine-exemptions
The exemption process needs to be completed through the links above. Families should save and print the appropriate form and submit it to their school each school year.
