Genetics Program

The Genetics Program provides services to families impacted by genetic conditions, a condition they inherit. The goal is to ensure that a correct diagnosis is made and families receive current information on the specific genetic condition. Genetic disorders may be identified at the time of birth through routine newborn screening done in the hospital. Infants who have had positive screening tests through the newborn screening are referred to their local health department.
