planning process under the Government Performance and Results Act 
(GPRA) to ensure that Agency stakeholders are given an opportunity to 
comment on this plan.
    This document integrates the Department's mission into a 
presentation of performance goals under four strategic goals. These 
five strategic goals are (1) Transform Health Care, (2) Advance 
Scientific Knowledge and Innovation, (3) Advance the Health, Safety, 
and Well-Being of the American People, (4) Increase Efficiency, 
Transparency, and Accountability of HHS Programs, and (5) Strengthen 
the Nation's Health and Human Services Infrastructure and Workforce.
    The strategic planning process is an opportunity for the Department 
to further refine and strengthen the strategic goal structure currently 
in place. For comparison purposes, the current HHS Strategic Plan FY 
2007-2012 can be viewed at http://aspe.hhs.gov/hhsplan/.
    The Department has made significant progress in its strategic and 
performance planning efforts. As we build on this progress we look 
forward to receiving your comments by August 14. The text of the draft 
strategic plan is available in a ``pdf'' downloadable format through 
the Department of Health and Human Services Web site: http://www.hhs.gov/open/.
