Forensic DNA arena. We are poised to do great things not only for the State of Arkansas but internationally. Our main service is DNA testing for both human identity and paternity testing. Our mission is to support State Crime Labs across the nation by helping them become compliant with a federally funded mandate to outsource their backlogged DNA samples to private DNA labs.
Additionally, it is Arkansas Genomics' mission to assist any and all State IV-D contractors in the area of Child Support and Family Service cases. (Title IV-D case means any case in which the child support enforcement agency is enforcing the child support order pursuant to Title IV-D of the “Social Security Act,” 88 Stat. 2351 (1975), 42 U.S.C. 651, as amended.)
