Welcome!

Welcome to the Southeastern Regional Genetics Group (SERGG). SERGG is a network of genetics and newborn screening providers in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands, and is funded in part by a grant from the Federal Health Resources and Service Administration (HRSA), Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB).

One of the goals of SERGG is to address the inequities in genetic service and resources in the region and to expand existing regional capabilities and resources and to develop new regional systems to address these gaps. Another goal is to improve the existing regional communication infrastructure and to facilitate information sharing among providers of genetic services and consumes and to establish collaborative partnerships with other professional organizations.

SERGG welcomes you to use the information found in this site and invites your participation.
