CPCX 2026-2030 Strategic Plan
This is the CPCX's 2026-2030 Strategic Plan. CPCX is the Corps’ center of expertise for public participation and collaboration. The center helps teams engage communities early and meaningfully so project decisions are informed, transparent, and grounded in two-way communication. Public involvement is an essential part of USACE missions, strengthening relationships with the communities we serve and improving overall project understanding and satisfaction.

Teamwork is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishments toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results. —Andrew Carnegie
