Summary

Substantial progress has been achieved on the cross cutting initiatives established in the first three versions of the HHS Open Government Plan.  HHS Operating and Staff Divisions have continued to emphasize the principles of transparency, collaboration and participation in addressing our mission. 

The Version 4.0 plan continues to draw from strategic principles outlined in our operating plans and is tied programmatically to deliverables for them. Emphasis is made throughout this plan on the application of innovative processes and applications of technology to improve on each programs’ ability to achieve its goals. 

HHS reaches out to its stakeholders and many partners to continue to bring their best ideas forward.  Our message is that the effort to make government processes more open at HHS is dependent on the public to succeed.  We invite you to make your voice heard and engage us at [email protected].
