From 2004 to 2024, the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funded the seven Regional Genetics Networks, the National Coordinating Center for the Regional Genetics Networks, and the National Genetics Education and Family Support Center.
With the conclusion of funding, these programs and their resources are no longer supported.
Our Mission
The National Coordinating Center for the Regional Genetics Networks mission was to improve access to genetic services for underserved populations. We accomplished this mission through working with the seven Regional Genetics Networks (RGNs) and the National Genetics Education and Family Support Center (Family Center) and developing resources related to education (general genetics and genetics policy), workforce development, and raising awareness about public health genetics.Â
Funding
