When I search the Muck Rock database for agencies my my local Sheriff’s Department and other agencies and facilities are not listed. How can I add them to the database so i can send a FIOA request?

Hi Lorraine,

Thanks for your question. When you go to file a request, you can type in the name of the agency and the state. If it is not in the system, you can still write your request and click submit.

There will be an option for you to add the information yourself (to make the process go faster) or you can wait for MuckRock to add the agency’s information.

Your request will then be submitted to the agency.

Thanks,

Hayden
