Each goal is supported by objectives and strategies.
    The strategic planning consultation process is an opportunity for 
the Department to refine and strengthen the HHS Strategic Plan FY 2018-
2022. 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 October 26, 2017. The text of the
