Learn More: FVM Strategic Plan Alignment

In July 2016, the FDA released the Foods and Veterinary Medicine (FVM) Program Strategic Plan for Fiscal Years 2016 – 2025. To effectively demonstrate how the FVM Program continues to focus on its Strategic Goals and Objectives, the FDA-TRACK website was realigned from an organizational structure to a Strategic Plan structure. This updated realignment organizes the performance measures and key projects by the strategic goal, strategic objective, program area, and initiative.

The purpose of the realignment is to provide a comprehensive and cross-cutting view of how the FVM Program is making progress towards achieving its four Public Health Outcomes:

Reduce the incidence of illnesses and deaths attributable to preventable contamination of FDA-regulated food and feed products.
Reduce risk factors for and the incidence of nutrition-related chronic disease.
Reduce human and animal illness and death from FDA-regulated animal health products.
Enable the FVM program to optimize public health gains by making the best use of available resources.

The FVM Measures and Projects Index is still sortable by Center (the Center of Food Safety and Applied Nutrition or the Center for Veterinary Medicine).
