Parent & Guardian Resources
The Kansas Newborn Screening Program has developed information sheets for parents about each of the disorders. The table below lists each disorder, a link to the Kansas Information for Parents sheet, as well as additional specific links for many of the disorders.
Financial assistance for clinic services and treatments may be available to the family upon application to the Special Health Care Needs (SHCN) program.
Another good resource for parents is FELSI (Financial, Ethical, Legal and Social Issues).
