The theme, “Different = Amazing”, honors variations in the way genetic counselors practice, how we understand our patients and ourselves, and how an evolving genomics landscape presents unparalleled opportunities.

Our Friday event will feature a staged reading of a section of the play “White People” by members of the Salt Lake Acting Company. It will be followed by a panel of genetic counselors reflecting on the themes of race, religion, and disability in their personal lives and in their practice.

Our Saturday event will be held at a different location this year, the amazing Leonardo museum downtown! All conference participants, as well as their immediate family members, will enjoy access to the exhibits following the conference.

The National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC) has authorized the Association for Utah Genetic Counselors to offer up to 0.65 CEUs or 6.5 Category 1 contact hours for the event Different = Amazing. The American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC) will accept CEUs earned at this program for the purposes of genetic counselor certification and recertification.
