Office of National Drug Control Policy Open Government Plan Version 1.0

摘要

The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) fosters healthy individuals and safe communities by effectively leading the Nations effort to reduce drug use and its consequences. Working with Federal agencies, State and local government officials, non-profit organizations, and the private sector, ONDCP develops a national strategy to reduce: illicit drug use, manufacturing, and trafficking; drug-related crime and violence; and drug-related health consequences. Collaborating with individuals and partner organizations is vital to the success of the Agency, and ONDCP is committed to the principles of openness outlined in the Open Government Directive. Included here are ONDCP activities that currently support the goals of Open Government, including the development and dissemination of the National Drug Control Strategy; Agency policies for communication of data and results, events, and budgetary information; and a variety of methods for informing key audiences. Notwithstanding ongoing efforts, ONDCP recognizes there is significant room for enhancing these activities and is committed to revising policies and expanding activities to ensure continued and sustained improvement. The plan outlined here provides a two-year strategy for improving transparency, participation, and collaboration at ONDCP. For each of these principles, specific activities and associated timelines have been provided. The Agency will enhance internal management through administration or implementation of policies to reach these goals, as well as launch innovative new tools to further engage the public. The ONDCP Flagship Initiative outlines the development of a new online data source that will enhance collaboration among Federal partners, make public new data about drug use, and serve as a foundation upon which partners can develop related projects. Public input was solicited and considered in the development of this plan. Through the ONDCP blog and other online feedback mechanisms and public engagement opportunities, ONDCP will continue to expand, enhance, and revise this plan to improve openness at the Agency.
