  2. Center for Veterinary MedicineChallenges ► CVM is the smallest of FDA Centers ► Regulates a wide range of products such as animal drugs, cloning, genetically engineered animals, BSE, growth hormones for animals and medicated/non-medicated feed (includes pet food) ► Much of the public and even industry not familiar with CVM

  4. Persuasive Communication ► Recall Notices ► Warning Letters ► Untitled Letters

  5. Persuasive Communication CriteriaWhat Do We Consider? • Surveillance • Look for trends/patterns in reports • How confident are we in the information? • What is the potential for public harm? • Risk/Benefit ratio • Typically targeted towards industry

  6. How Can We Best Serve Our Stakeholders (consumers, Veterinarians, Animal Healthcare Producers, Feed Industry, Etc.) in Providing Timely and Important Information? ► What vehicle (web, radio, TV, print, etc.) provides the optimum exposure? ► Does the target audience determine the type of document/product? ► How can outside groups participate in disseminating our message?

  7. Persuasive/Non-persuasive Communication Challenges ► How do we balance the need to communicate early while issues are still emerging without causing undue alarm or damage to a business or industry? ► What are the best techniques for conveying an “emerging and/or uncertain issue”? ► How do you practice follow-up as the issue unfolds, i.e. how often do you communicate, how do you come to closure, etc?
