The changes include revising certain statements on the form to comply with legal standards and updating language regarding gender to specify biological sex, as required by executive order. Interested individuals have until March 20, 2025, to submit their feedback.

    The Office of Minority Health (OMH) within the Department of Health and Human Services has updated its organizational structure. The division previously known as the Division of Information and Education (DIE) has been renamed to the Division of Strategic Communication and Community Engagement (DCE) to better reflect its functions and to use a more socially acceptable acronym. The functions of the division remain the same as they were outlined in a previous notice from April 11, 1995.

    Simple Explanation

    The Office of Minority Health in the health department changed the name of one of its teams from Division of Information and Education to Division of Strategic Communication and Community Engagement to better match what they do and have a nicer-sounding name. The team's work stays the same as before.
