Public Citizen Launches Public Interest FOIA Clinic

“Public Citizen launched the Public Interest FOIA Clinic, an online resource that will help nonprofit organizations obtain federal government documents. The FOIA Clinic will help ensure that agencies live up to a high standard for openness and accountability set by the Freedom of Information Act and that public interest organizations can receive the information they need to further their work. Through the Public Interest FOIA Clinic, the Public Citizen Litigation Group – a division of Public Citizen – will provide a range of direct litigation assistance to public interest organizations, from initial advice about requesting documents to pro bono representation in litigating the denial of a request. Litigation assistance is particularly essential to the many public interest organizations that have substantive expertise in their field but lack substantial FOIA litigation experience.”
