from unreasonable risks of injury and death from consumer products.'' 
The CPSC will work to achieve four strategic goals that will contribute

strategies to achieve the strategic goals. The strategic goals are:

    2. Prevent hazardous products from reaching consumers.
    3. Respond quickly to address hazardous consumer products in the 
marketplace and with consumers.
    4. Communicate useful information quickly and effectively to better 
inform decisions.
    The draft 2016-2020 Strategic Plan sets out how the CPSC will 
pursue the four strategic goals. The draft Strategic Plan is available
