U.S. Department of State employees, with their skills, character and commitment to public service, are the backbone of America\'s diplomacy. They represent the people and advocate the interests of the United States to the rest of the world. The Foreign Service is dedicated to representing America and responding to the needs of American citizens in other countries.
