Book excerpt: The Forest Service, building on achievements gained through a century of commitment to excellence, continues its stewardship of the Nation's forests and grasslands to sustain natural resources for current and future generations. This plan provides the strategic direction that guides the Forest Service in delivering its mission. We address the core principles by which we work; major issues currently important to natural resources management and to the strategic goals upon which the agency will focus for fiscal years (FY) 2007 through 2012. Our programs and budget are aligned with the goals and objectives in this strategic plan and as well as with our focus areas. Our strategic direction supplements the USDA Strategic Plan for FY 2005–2010 in delivery of the Department's mission. Through State foresters, tribal leaders, and other partners, we provide financial and technical assistance to help forest landowners, public and private, manage their lands for sustainability. Our International Programs staff provides worldwide resource expertise, helping to promote global sustainable natural resource management.
