National EP Initiatives• Participation in national organization EP groups
– Nat. Emergency Manager’s Association (sponsor of EMAC)– American Public Health Laboratory association
• Development of National Genetics Professional Cadre to support response mission of DHHS
• Development of genetics network situational awareness by network-wide survey/assessment of capacity to respond
• Support wider participation of:– NBS lab harmonization/contingency planning– Backup lab agreements and sample exchange drills
• Development/sponsorship of EP awareness education:– Online training modules, EP content– Development of genetics professional cadre
