- Provide a forum for open discussion and presentation of quorum-based resolutions for consideration to the USAHA executive committee
- Share research findings and educational information that will lead to improved methods for the diagnosis, prevention and control of Salmonella in food-producing animals and humans in the farm-to-table continuum
- Promote the development of science-based regulatory and voluntary Salmonella programs through the cooperative efforts of animal and allied industries, universities and state and federal agencies (e.g. National Poultry Improvement Plan)
- Support state and federal agency, university, livestock, poultry and allied industry efforts that contribute to improve on-farm reduction and control of Salmonella
- Facilitate collaboration between state and federal animal health and public health agencies and universities in developing new educational, laboratory and epidemiological approaches to Salmonella in food-producing animals and humans
