ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Secretary of HHS established the Advisory Council to 
provide advice and consultation to the Secretary on how to prevent or 
reduce the burden of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias on 
people with the disease and their caregivers. The Secretary signed the 
charter establishing the Advisory Council on May 23, 2011. HHS is 
soliciting nominations for seven (7) new non-Federal members of the 
Advisory Council to replace the seven members whose terms will end 
September 30th, 2017. Nominations should include the nominee's contact 
information (current mailing address, email address, and telephone 
number) and current curriculum vitae or resume.

DATES: Submit nominations by email or USPS mail before COB on June 16, 
2017.

ADDRESSES: Nominations should be sent by email to Rohini Khillan at 
[email protected]; or sent by USPS mail to: Rohini Khillan, Office 
of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, Room 424E, 
Humphrey Building, 200 Independence Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20201.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Rohini Khillan (202) 690-5932, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Advisory Council on Alzheimer's 
Research, Care, and Services meets quarterly to discuss programs that 
impact people with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and their 
caregivers. The Advisory Council makes recommendations to Congress and 
the Secretary of Health and Human Services about ways to reduce the 
financial impact of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias and to 
improve the health outcomes of people with these conditions. The 
Advisory Council also provides feedback on a National Plan for 
Alzheimer's disease. On an annual basis, the Advisory Council evaluates 
the implementation of the recommendations through an updated National 
Plan. The National Alzheimer's Project Act, Public Law 111-375 (42 
U.S.C. 11225), requires that the Secretary of Health and Human Services 
(HHS) establish the Advisory Council on Alzheimer's Research, Care, and 
Services. The Advisory Council is governed by provisions of Public Law 
92-463 (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2), which sets forth standards for the 
formation and use of advisory committees.
    The Advisory Council consists of 22 members. Ten members will be 
designees from Federal agencies including the Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention, Administration for Community Living, Centers 
for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Indian Health Service, National 
Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation, Department of 
Veterans Affairs, Food and Drug Administration, Agency for Healthcare 
Research and Quality, and the Health Resources and Services 
Administration.
    The Advisory Council also consists of 12 non-federal members 
selected by the Secretary who fall into 6 categories: Dementia 
caregivers (2), health care providers (2), representatives of State 
health departments (2), researchers with dementia-related expertise in 
basic, translational, clinical, or drug development science (2), 
voluntary health association representatives (2), and dementia patient 
advocates, including an advocate who is currently living with the 
disease (2). The member living with the disease serves a 2-year term.
    At this time, the Secretary shall appoint one member for each 
category, to replace the seven members whose terms will end on 
September 30th, 2017, for a total of seven (7) new members to the 
Council. After receiving nominations, the Secretary, with input from 
his staff, will make the final decision, and the new members will be 
announced soon after. Members shall be invited to serve 4-year terms, 
except that any member appointed to fill a vacancy for an unexpired 
term shall be appointed for the remainder of such term. The member 
living with the disease will serve a 2-year term. A member may serve 
after the expiration of the member's term until a successor has taken 
office. Members will serve as Special Government Employees.
