FOIA Team

Overview
The DHS Privacy Office's FOIA Team coordinates Department-level compliance with FOIA by developing Department-wide policy needed to implement important FOIA initiatives, such as the sweeping changes set forth in the President's FOIA Memorandum and the Attorney General's FOIA Guidelines of 2009. Additionally, the FOIA Team coordinates and oversees Component FOIA operations, provides FOIA training, and prepares required annual reports of the Department's FOIA performance. The FOIA Team also processes initial FOIA and Privacy Act of 1974 requests on behalf of the Office of the Secretary (including the Military Advisor's Office and the Office of Intergovernmental Affairs (IGA)), and nine DHS Components.
