The parent or legal guardian of the child they wish to exempt from vaccination needs to state in writing that immunization would violate his or her philosophical or religious beliefs and give the written statement to the school or daycare upon registration. There is no standardized form, (Click below on the Religious or Philosophical Vaccine Exemption Form link.) only a written document from the parent or legal guardian. For questions or more information please contact the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, Preventative Health Immunization at 504-838-5300.
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.
