๐Ÿฉธ๐Ÿฉธ September was Sickle Cell Awareness Month and October is Newborn Screening Month

Early testing saves lives. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’–

Every baby is screened at birth for various genetic conditions โ€” itโ€™s the first step in identifying sickle cell disease and other serious conditions early.

๐Ÿ‘ถ๐Ÿพ Newborn screening = early diagnosis
โค๏ธ Early diagnosis = better care

Sickle Cell Disease affects millions worldwide โ€” but with early diagnosis, ongoing care, and community support, those living with it can lead strong, thriving lives.

We honor the warriors, caregivers, and advocates who fight every day to increase awareness, advance research, and provide hope.

Make sure your baby gets tested a birth! If you have any questions, contact
