About the Florida Sickle Cell Disease Registry

The Florida Sickle Cell Disease Registry collects valuable information about sickle cell disease and the sickle cell trait. This helps healthcare teams, patients, and families make informed health choices and support ongoing research. The registry was established under Section 383.147 of the Florida Statute, to improve the lives of those impacted by sickle cell disease.
