This grant is for the purpose of significantly enhancing public health by expanding vital newborn screening programs across the United States and its territories. Specifically, it aims to increase the number of jurisdictions with active screening initiatives for Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID). SCID is a rare, life-threatening genetic disorder that impairs the immune system, making early detection crucial for timely medical intervention and improved patient outcomes. Funding will support states and territories in developing, implementing, or strengthening comprehensive SCID newborn screening protocols. This includes establishing necessary laboratory infrastructure, ensuring effective follow-up procedures for identified cases, and integrating screening into existing public health systems. The ultimate goal is to protect more newborns nationwide from the severe consequences of undiagnosed SCID through widespread, early detection.
