MINORITY GENETIC

MGPN was established in 2018 as a project under the Western States Regional Genetics Network to increase access to genetic services for communities of color by addressing the limited racial and ethnic diversity among medical genetic professionals. Building a more diverse workforce in clinical genetics is a critical step in moving toward healthcare equity and leads to increased access to genetic services for racial and ethnic minority communities. MGPN supports diverse students to explore and enter training programs for genetics professions. MGPN serves as an organized space where racially and ethnically diverse genetic professionals and students can connect and have support to become leaders in their professions.
