APPLICATION FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE
The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 requires us to notify you that this information collection is in accordance with the clearance requirements of section 3507 of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. We may not conduct or sponsor, and you are not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB
number. We anticipate that the time expended by all individuals who must complete this form will average 15 minutes. This includes the time it will take to read
instructions, gather the necessary facts and fill out the form. The form is used to assist personnel of both voluntary organizations, which recruit volunteers from their
membership, and the VA in the selection, screening and placement of volunteers in the nationwide VA Voluntary Service program. The volunteer program supplements
the medical care and treatment of veteran patients in all VA facilities.
PRIVACY ACT INFORMATION: The information requested on this form is solicited under the authority of 38 U.S.C. 513 and will be used in the selection and
placement of potential volunteers in the VA Voluntary Service Program. The information you supply may be disclosed outside VA as permitted by law; possible
disclosures include those described in the 'routine uses' identified in the VA system of records 57VA125 Voluntary Service Records-VA, published in the Federal
Register in accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974. The routine uses include disclosures: in response to court subpoenas, to report apparent law violations to other
Federal, State or local agencies charged with law enforcement responsibilities, to service organizations, employers and Unemployment Compensation Offices to confirm
volunteer service, and to congressional offices at the request of the volunteer. Disclosure of the information is voluntary, however, failure to furnish the information will
hamper our ability to arrange the most satisfactory assignment for you and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
