× The federal government has shut down due to the failures of the President and Congress to continue government funding. Millions of Californians receiving benefits from state programs may be impacted. For now, California’s Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) will continue to provide services and enroll eligible families as long as funding is available. No new federal funding to California WIC will be provided until the President and Congress take action. Families should continue to use their WIC benefits and attend their WIC appointments. This information is subject to change, so please monitor the California WIC website for updates.

Please be wary of potential highly partisan political messaging while visiting federal government websites for information related to the federal government shutdown.

California immunization registry

Pharmacy Manual Data Entry CAIR Logo


CAIR has consolidated 9 regional registries (NorCal, Gr. Sacramento, Bay Area, central Coast, Central Valley, Inland Empire, LA-Orange, Imperial, and San Diego) into a single consolidated state registry known as CAIR2.   However, 1 of the 10 CAIR regional registries will continue to use their own software and store their own regional patient data. This 'independent' CAIR registry is CAIR San Joaquin.
