2022-2026 ASPR Strategic Plan

National health security threats exist within a complex, global, and everchanging environment. The strength of our nation's public health and medical infrastructure, as well as the capabilities necessary to quickly mobilize a coordinated national response to current and future threats are essential to save lives and protect the Nation. As such, the work that ASPR does is more important than ever. Today, ASPR is responsible for numerous high-consequence, no-fail missions that can occur anywhere across the nation at any time.

ASPR continues to step up and meet the moment, no matter how challenging or complex. As ASPR completes its transition into an Operating Division and the nation emerges from the acute phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, we will look for opportunities to strengthen ASPR's preparedness, response, partnership, and workforce development capabilities as we look toward the future. This five-year strategic plan will help to guide the organization as it continues to grow. While we do not know what the next public health emergency or disaster will be, we do know that ASPR's response to it is assured.
