The Genetic Support Network of Victoria (GSNV) was established in 1997 in response to a changing complex environment; in recognition of the importance of a broad consumer voice in genetic health; acknowledgement of a gap in existing support for many rare, undiagnosed and genetic conditions and to increase awareness of the challenges faced by people with genetic conditions and those who support them.

The GSNV is proudly supported by a grant made possible by the Department of Health and Human Services, Victoria. The GSNV thanks its financial members and acknowledges the kind donations.
