The charge of the Interagency Committee includes promoting collaboration among federal agencies. A goal of this committee is to develop a national “Roadmap” for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). This strategic planning effort will represent the collective expertise of providers, educators, advocates, federal/state/national organizations, and individuals with TBI and their families and will result in a consensus document outlining the critical elements of a successful system of care for TBI service delivery.
Outcomes of the planning effort include the adoption of NINDS Common Data Elements for TBI research, and creation of the FITBIR Informatics System to store data from TBI patients and controls enrolled in studies funded by the DoD and NIH. The FITBIR Informatics System was developed to share data across the entire TBI research field and to facilitate collaboration between laboratories, as well as interconnectivity with other informatics platforms.

The Federal Interagency Workgroup on Autism Spectrum Disorders (FIWA) is composed of representatives from departments and agencies across the U.S. Government, who voluntarily meet to coordinate research, services, and support activities related to autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
The FIWA was first convened as an interagency workgroup to address requirements of the Autism Collaboration, Accountability, Research, Education, and Support (CARES) Act of 2014 (PL 113-157). The Autism Cares Act of 2014 required that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) designate a National Autism Coordinator to oversee national ASD research, service, and support activities, and prevent unnecessary duplication of effort, in consultation with the Secretaries of Defense and Education. The Autism Cares Act of 2014 also required that this coordination of activities take into account the Strategic Plan developed by the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC), and requested a Report to Congress concerning young adults with ASD and the challenges related to the transition from existing school-based services to those services available during adulthood.
