Newborn genomic sequencing (NBSeq) has the potential to substantially improve early detection of rare genetic conditions, allowing for pre-symptomatic treatment to optimize outcomes. Expanding conceptions of the clinical utility of NBSeq include earlier access to behavioral early intervention to support the acquisition of core motor, cognitive, communication, and adaptive skills during critical windows in early development. However, important questions remain about equitable access to early intervention programs for the growing number of infants identified with a genetic condition via NBSeq. We review the current NBSeq public health, clinical, and research landscape, and highlight ongoing international research efforts to collect population-level data on the utility of NBSeq for healthy newborns. We then explore the challenges facing a specific Early Intervention (EI) system-the US federally supported "Part C" system-for meeting the developmental needs of young children with genetic diagnoses, including structural limitations related to funding, variable eligibility criteria, and lack of collaboration with newborn screening programs. We conclude with a set of questions to guide future research at the intersection of NBSeq, newborn screening, and EI, which once answered, can steer future policy to ensure that EI service systems can optimally support the developmental needs of infants impacted by broader implementation of NBSeq. IMPACT: Existing literature on the clinical benefits of genome sequencing in newborns tends to focus on earlier provision of medical interventions, with less attention to the ongoing developmental needs of very young children with genetic conditions. This review outlines the developmental needs of a growing number of children diagnosed with genetic conditions in infancy and describes the strengths and limitations of the United States Early Intervention system (IDEA Part C) for meeting those needs.
