FOIA                    
		                                The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requires that the COPS Office provide its records to anyone who requests them in writing and who includes a reasonable description of the records being requested. Certain records may be exempt from disclosure under FOIA. To obtain information on how to make a FOIA request, review the FOIA Fact Sheet.

If you are looking for information about the U.S. Department of Justice not related to the COPS Office or community policing, please refer to the DOJ FOIA Reference Guide or the DOJ FOIA web page to direct your request to the appropriate office.
