The U.S. Intelligence Community is a coalition of 17 agencies and organizations, including the ODNI, within the Executive Branch that work both independently and collaboratively to gather and analyze the intelligence necessary to conduct foreign relations and national security activities.
Quite simply, intelligence is the information our nationâs leaders need to keep our country safe. Our leaders, like the President, make policy decisions based on this intelligence. Since they donât have time to read other countriesâ newspapers or watch foreign TV newscasts, we do that for them â collecting current intelligence. We also gather information other countries may not wish to share openly.
