There is no standardized form, (Click below on the link New Jersey Religious Vaccine Exemption Form.) only a written document from the parent or legal guardian. For questions or more information please contact the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, Vaccine Preventable Disease Program at 609-588-7512.
