MEMBER AGENCIES:

Seventeen separate organizations unite to form the Intelligence Community (IC).

The overall efforts of the IC are administered by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). ODNI’s role is to organize and coordinate the efforts of the other 16 IC agencies. Those agencies are divided into three groups:

• Program Managers, who advise and assist the ODNI in identifying requirements, developing budgets, managing finances and evaluating the IC’s performance
• Departmentals, which are IC components within government departments outside of the DoD that focus on serving their parent department’s intelligence needs
• Services, which encompass intelligence personnel in the armed forces, and which primarily support their own service branch’s needs
