Federal Bureau of Investigation

Mission 
Our mission encompasses all that we do as an organization—protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States. 

Mission Priorities
Our mission priorities assist us to determine where to focus our efforts and resources in order to mitigate threats and move toward accomplishing our vision. The eight mission priorities outline how we protect the American people and uphold the Constitution of the United States.

We considered these questions when determining our mission priorities: 

  • What are those realities that most threaten the security of the United States? 
  • What are the threats to our way of life that the American people need the FBI to address first? 
  • To what degree do the threats fall most exclusively within the FBI’s jurisdiction and competencies? 

Core Values 
Our core values—respect, integrity, accountability, leadership, diversity, compassion, fairness, and rigorous obedience to the Constitution—are the foundation of our organization and should be incorporated into everything we do.
