In May 2007, the National Institute of Mental Health launched the process to develop a new Strategic Plan that will serve as a guide to the Institute for advancing mental health science over the next 3-5 years. The Institute has now completed a draft of this Strategic Plan, and seeks public feedback before the main text is finalized. 

The document is written such that the Institute’s Strategic Objectives build upon one another, with themes from the first Objectives mentioned and interwoven with later ones. The finished version will include additional materials, including stories of discovery that highlight collaborative efforts and recent research advances. 

We encourage you to read the draft Strategic Plan and provide any comments you may have via the email address noted in the Plan ([email protected]).  The draft Plan can be accessed at the following website: http://www.nimh.nih.gov/about/strategic-planning-reports/nimh-draft-strategic-plan.shtml.
Comments will be accepted by email through December 21, 2007.
