The parent or legal guardian of the child they wish to exempt from vaccination must contact the local county health department. Tell them you wish to obtain a religious exemption form and they will schedule an appointment for you to come in and fill out the form. Bring with you a statement of your sincere religious beliefs of why you reject vaccination and the nurse will then fill out a form (Religious Exemption from Immunization Form 681) for the parent or legal guardian to give to the daycare or school. For more information, contact the Florida Department of Health, Bureau of Immunization at 850-245-4342.
If you experience harassment from either the county or state health department for your decision on not to have your child vaccinated, please contact us at info@ExemptMyChild.com Remember: It is your choice to not have your child vaccinated. This is a right that must not be violated by public health officials.
