HHSinnovates Public Voting

HHSinnovates: Six finalists have been selected and we now invite the public
to select their favorite innovation



Based on the input we received from across HHS, six finalists have been selected,
and now for the first time ever, we are inviting the public to select their favorite
innovation!   That means the public will help determine which of the top six
finalists will be selected as the "People's Choice".   Public voting is open from
September 6 - September 14, 2012.  Stakeholders, beneficiaries, friends and others
can vote on their favorite innovation by visiting our HHSinnovates public voting
website<http://www.hhs.gov/open/initiatives/hhsinnovates/index.html> [the public URL
is http://www.hhs.gov/open/initiatives/hhsinnovates/index.html].  A press release
about the public voting will be issued tomorrow.

In its fifth iteration, the HHSinnovates Program continues to highlight innovative
programs and processes developed by HHS staff, often in collaboration with our
partners.  These new approaches are created to help carry out the Department's
mission to:  enhance the health and well-being of Americans by providing for
effective health and human services and by fostering strong, sustained advances in 
public health, biomedical research and social services.

From an initial 60 projects submitted this round, six have been chosen as finalists
based on the HHS community's input.   You can now help us to further showcase these
exciting HHS innovations by encouraging the public and those we serve to vote on
their favorite innovation by visiting the HHSinnovates public voting
