Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Office
New Yorkers 16 and older in juvenile detention, youth shelters and foster care facilities can now receive the COVID-19 vaccine, according to new guidance from the Cuomo administration.
The Office of Children and Family Services sent a letter to provider agencies Monday night emphasizing that older teens in residential programs licensed or certified by the state are eligible for vaccine distribution.
The memo is an attempt to clear up confusion that has existed for the past few weeks over whether kids in juvenile facilities could get a dose.
