NORAD USNORTHCOM Strategic Guidance

Abstract

This Guidance provides strategic direction to ensure unity of effort within and between North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM). It applies to the NORAD and USNORTHCOM headquarters staffs, the NORAD regional commands and the USNORTHCOM subordinate commands and service components. NORAD and USNORTHCOM Strategic Guidance sets forth the strategic goals and objectives we need to accomplish in order to execute our missions. These goals and objectives focus the actions and efforts of NORAD and USNORTHCOM personnel and serve as the basis for priorities and resource allocation within the control of both Commands. This further defines who the Commands are and where we are headed in the next two to three years. NORAD and USNORTHCOM have complementary missions and work closely together to fulfill our homeland defense responsibilities. The Commands face a common security environment, have a predominately shared headquarters staff and are dedicated to defending North America. We share common values and understand the importance of carrying out our duties with a sense of urgency in the face of very real and present dangers.
