Leading Change: A Plan for SAMHSA's Roles and Actions 2011 - 2014

SAMHSA has identified eight strategic initiatives to focus the Agency's
work on improving lives and capitalizing on emerging opportunities.
These initiatives will focus SAMHSA's efforts and maximize the impact of
our resources on areas of urgency and opportunity. They will also enable
SAMHSA to shift its programs to better compliment the shifting policy
landscape resulting from the Affordable Care Act and Parity.

SAMHSA recently released a detailed plan for achieving the goals of the
agency's eight new strategic initiatives entitled Leading Change: A Plan
for SAMHSA's Roles and Actions 2011 - 2014. In conjunction with the
release of the document, SAMHSA is piloting a new tool as part of the
agency's continuing efforts to increase opportunities for public
engagement, collaboration and participation. This tool allows people to
come together, share ideas in response to a question, discuss those
ideas, and vote the best ones to the top. Everyone is encouraged to read
the plan and provide feedback.

The plan is available on SAMHSA's website at: 
http://www.samhsa.gov/about/strategy.aspx 

Instructions for using this forum are available at

Technical questions about this feedback forum can be directed to

SAMHSA will also be holding an in-person open house from 9 a.m. - 12
p.m. on Friday, October 8th for those wishing to give feedback on the
document. The open house will be held at SAMHSA headquarters at 1 Choke
