CFSAN's Outreach and Information Center

The Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition's (CFSAN) Outreach and Information Center (O&IC) opened in September 1999. The goal of the O&IC is to enhance CFSAN's ability to provide and respond to the public's desire/demand for more useful, timely, and accurate information regarding its regulated products.

The O&IC was also established to enhance FDA's ability to provide accurate and meaningful information to the public about food safety. In addition to providing food safety information, the O&IC will provide assistance with other CFSAN issues including, nutrition, dietary supplements, food labeling, cosmetics, food additives, and food biotechnology.
