During the past 12 months, the Division of STD Prevention (DSTDP) Senior Staff led the Division’s strategic planning process to produce this five-year strategic plan meant to guide DSTDP’s decision making, human and financial resource allocation, and programmatic direction. The process included collaboration across DSTDP through its six branches, with its six cross-disciplinary workgroups, and with units within the Office of the Director. In addition, selected external colleagues were asked in structured interviews to react to draft goals and objectives, and senior staff from National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) reviewed the final draft. Comments, suggestions, concerns and questions from all of these contributors were taken into account in finalizing this plan. DSTDP underwent a comprehensive external review of its research portfolio in October of 2007, and the report from this review also informed the strategic planning process. Previous DSTDP Strategic Plans from 1995 and 2000 provided useful platforms for development of this plan.
