Tomorrow: FDA Tobacco Center Strategic Plan Event

Tomorrow, Aug. 22, 2023 is the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) online forum centered on developing a 5-year strategic plan to advance its mission.

As part of an iterative, center-wide process, CTP has developed five proposed goal areas. These goal areas are intended to be interconnected with four proposed cross-cutting themes: health equity, science, transparency, and stakeholder engagement.

The center intends to publish the strategic plan by the end of 2023, following receipt and consideration of public input.

Beginning at 10 a.m. EDT, the CTP virtual listening session will give the public an opportunity to verbally provide open public comment on the development of the 5-year strategic plan, including proposed strategic goals.

CTP will begin with an overview of the process used to develop the center’s strategic plan, including proposed goal areas. Registered speakers will then have approximately 4 minutes each to verbally share their comments on any topics related to the strategic plan.

Live closed captioning and ASL interpreters will be provided during the listening session. If you have issues registering or have any questions, please email malini.runnells@fda.hhs.gov or call 1-877-CTP-1373 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. EDT.

A transcript and recording will be made available after the listening session.
