This palm card is designed to help family planning staff use normalizing language to explain and administer multiple vaccines, including the HPV vaccine, during one visit. The sooner the HPV vaccine is administered to adolescents, the sooner they will be protected from six cancers. Vaccination before age 14 has been found to be most effective and only requires two doses (versus three after age 15).
