FY 2022 Annual Performance Plan and Report

Fiscal Year 2022
Released June, 2021

The Annual Performance Plan and Report provides information on the Department's progress towards achieving the goals and objectives described in the HHS Strategic Plan. HHS is currently developing the Strategic Plan for FY 2022-2026 that will align with the Administration and the Department's priorities. The measures related to the HHS Strategic Plan FY 2022-2026 will be reported in the FY 2023 Annual Performance Plan and Report. As required by GRPAMA and OMB Circular A-11, the organization of this FY 2022 report instead aligns with the HHS Strategic Plan FY 2018-2022 established by the previous administration and the information in this report reflects results available as of April 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting HHS programs in a variety of ways, and in some cases those impacts are still evolving given the dynamic nature of the situation. The pandemic may impact the ability of some HHS programs to achieve projected targets, or result in the need to revise targets in future years. Where known, impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on HHS performance results are identified in the sections below. As additional data becomes available, HHS will continue to update information on those impacts in future reports.
