OII State Liaisons

FDA state liaisons are aligned in program-based inspectorates within the Food Products Inspectorate: Human Food Inspectorate or Animal Food Inspectorate. State liaisons work with state programs, cooperatively establish work plans and coordinate both regulatory and surveillance inspections, in-depth investigations and sample collections.

Use the tables below to locate the state liaison assigned to your state and program.
