MessageThanks Jane. I saw that. I guess it is a judgment call as to whether a
release of names only is a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.
Our particular program has particpants under a several funding streams, some of
which are needs-based and some are not. We have nothing in our state law
precluding release of names only of minors participating in a grant program.
If we are to deny access, I wish I had something stronger than section
185(a)(4)(B).

I don't know what is in your state disclosure/foia/right to know act but how
about this? Section 185(a)(4)(B)(i).

Dear fellow WIA attorneys,
Any input you could give would be great - we have received a freedom of
information act request from a reporter who is requesting names of youth who
participated in WIA youth activities in a certain local area. The request is
for names only. I cannot find anything that would allow to deny the request -
am I missing something?
Thanks,
Sarah Harlan
