The Freedom of Information Law reaffirms your right to know how your government operates. It provides rights of access to records reflective of governmental decisions and policies that affect the lives of every New Yorker. In New York State, each state department and/or agency has a contact person for the public to contact in order to make a request for information as allowed for under the Freedom of Information statute.
In order to make a request of the New York State Office for the Aging, your request should be forwarded in writing to:
Jack Phelan, FOIL Officer
Two Empire State Plaza
Albany, NY 12223-1251
NOTE: It is suggested that your request be posted via “return receipt requested,” however this is not required.
If you prefer to file your request electronically, you may do so by sending your request to Mr. Phelan.
Should you have any questions regarding the Freedom of Information Law, please refer to the NYS Department of State
