ATLANTA, Dec. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — This holiday season, jscreen introduces the jGift, a simple and meaningful way to give the gift of health. The jGift makes it easy for anyone to share the benefits of genetic testing with family and friends through jscreen.org, a national nonprofit public health initiative providing education, access to genetic testing, and personalized support to help prevent devastating genetic diseases and cancer.
With at-home kit registration, comprehensive medical-grade testing, and personalized genetic counseling, jscreen empowers individuals and families to take control of their health and make informed choices for the future.
The process of purchasing a jGift is simple:
- Visit https://www.jscreen.org/jgift
- Select the test type — Reproductive Carrier, Hereditary Cancer, or Combo.
- Choose the gift value —
- $49 for a single test or $69 for a combo test, which covers all upfront costs. The rest is typically covered by health insurance.*
- Alternatively, gift givers who wish to cover the full self-pay cost of testing can purchase a jscreen gift card valued at $298 or $567, ensuring recipients have all expenses fully paid regardless of insurance coverage.
- Enter the recipient’s email and add a personal message to make the gift even more meaningful.
- Once purchased, the gift recipient will receive a unique, single-use coupon code by email, valid for one year from purchase.
To redeem, recipients simply visit jscreen.org, enter their jGift gift code, and complete registration to begin their testing. jscreen makes genetic testing simple, accessible, and affordable through at-home saliva test kits that include two key options. The jscreen Reproductive Carrier Screen is an at-home genetic carrier screening test that evaluates hundreds of genetic conditions, including cystic fibrosis, Tay-Sachs, and sickle cell disease, to help couples understand potential risks to their future children. This carrier screening test empowers families to plan for healthy pregnancies and make informed decisions. The second option, jscreen‘s Hereditary Cancer Test, identifies genetic mutations linked to increased cancer risks, such as breast, ovarian, prostate, and colorectal cancers. If a person learns they are at increased risk, there are actions they can take to prevent cancer or detect it at an earlier, more treatable stage.
Both testing options come with expert guidance from licensed genetic counselors, ensuring recipients understand their results and how to use them. Whether exploring preconception genetic testing to prepare for a family or seeking insights through cancer genetic testing to understand hereditary cancer risks, jscreen provides unmatched support at every stage. Customers have access to a team of expert genetic counselors and care navigators who guide them throughout the testing process and after results are delivered.
Dr. Matt Goldstein, MD, PhD, CEO of jscreen, shares, “A jscreen test empowers individuals and families with vital health knowledge. Sharing information about jscreen is a gift that truly makes a difference for generations to come.”
This holiday season, jscreen’s jGift offers a simple way to give something that matters: knowledge, reassurance, and the chance to take control of personal and family health. Each jGift is more than a present; it’s the opportunity to learn vital health information that can shape a family’s future.
