We envision a world that is virtually free of the genetic disorders prevalent in the Jewish community, and where the highest quality of health education and compassionate care is easily accessible to all.

Our Mission is to provide comprehensive genetic services for families and individuals affected by and at risk for the disorders known to occur more frequently in Jews.

Ninety-percent of Jews in the United States are of Ashkenazi descent derived from Eastern and Central Europe.

The Diseases most prevalent in Ashkenazi Jews are:

• Bloom Syndrome
• Canavan Disease
• Cystic Fibrosis
• Familial Dysautonomia
• Fanconi Anemia, Type C
• Gaucher Disease, Type I
• Mucolipidosis IV
• Niemann-Pick, Type A
• Tay-Sachs Disease
