Program areas at National Freedom of Information Coalition
Annual conference - the foi summit focuses on state and federal access laws and policies regarding records' disclosures and public meetings. The conference offers an opportunity for nfoic members and others interested in governmental transparency to get a clear view of issues arising, state by state.

A nonpartisan alliance of citizen-driven nonprofit Freedom of Information organizations, academic and first amendment centers, journalistic socities and attorneys, nfoic traces its origins to National organizational assemblies that state Freedom of Information (foi) advocates held in dallas in 1989 and 1991.
The Coalition awards grants under the knight foi fund, a litigation fund that exists to offer financial support in open government lawsuits.
