Abstract
The SC Birth Defects Program (SCBDP) is focused on birth defects prevention, research, and referrals. Birth defects are one of the top causes of infant death and sickness in South Carolina and in the United States. Babies born with a birth defect are more likely to face physical, academic, and social challenges than babies born without a birth defect. Many of these children need Early Intervention (BabyNet) services or surgeries within the first few years of life so that they can thrive.
