Know your GINA rights!
August 9, 2010
The HPS Network was one of many organizations that worked to pass the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) through Congress in 2008. Now that this legislation is becoming the law of the land, it’s important for people with HPS – or any other genetic condition – to understand what the law does, and does not, cover.
The Genetics and Public Policy Center at Johns Hopkins University, the National Coalition for Health Professional Education and the Genetic Alliance have teamed up to create a Web site with easy-to-understand materials about GINA and what it could mean for you.
Go to www.GINAHelp.org or www.nchpeg.org to learn more.
