ProAction & Immunize El Paso: 2 Paths, 1 Purpose
ProAction equips future 911 responders, firefighters, and hospital staff with top-notch EMT training, addressing the first responder shortage in El Paso. Immunize El Paso protects our community by providing affordable, and often no-cost, vaccines to children and adults. Together, we’re strengthening the health and safety of El Paso.

Why Give to Us?

ProAction serves our community in three key ways:

  • Providing equitable access to critical immunizations
  • Delivering life-saving medical support at local events
  • Offering educational opportunities in high-demand healthcare fields

We ensure first responders are on-site and ready at the events you enjoy. We also provide critical vaccinations to our most vulnerable community members, regardless of financial or transportation barriers.

Our Mission:

We improve lives and communities through immunization, prevention-based care, allied health and first responder education, and Emergency Medical Services (EMS).

ProAction Emergency Services Institute:

We provide life-saving courses and certifications to first responders, healthcare professionals, teachers, and community members across El Paso, Las Cruces, and the Borderplex region. In 2023, we graduated 105 EMTs and trained over 2,500 El Pasoans. By partnering with Workforce Solutions, we’re expanding opportunities, especially for transitioning active-duty personnel and veterans.

Immunize El Paso: “A Clinic Without Walls”

We bring essential childhood and adult immunizations to those without access. As a leading provider in the “Vaccine for Children” program, we ensure all children receive immunizations, regardless of income, transportation, or immigration status. To date, we’ve administered millions of vaccines to over one million people.

Medical Standby:

We employ EMT graduates and community professionals to provide EMS and First Aid support at events throughout the Borderplex region, including festivals, athletic games, concerts, and university activities. In 2023, our team staffed over 1,700 events.

We Can’t Do It Alone!

Make a difference today! Your support helps cover the high costs of medical equipment, supplies, and vaccines. Every dollar you give can save a life—whether by providing critical vaccinations or training the next EMT.
