AmeriCorps Member Disability Accommodation Off Set Reimb

AmeriCorps Member Disability Accommodation Off Set Reimbursement Request Form

Overview
Grantee organizations are responsible for providing reasonable accommodations for their AmeriCorps members. The funds that AmeriCorps State and National provides toward accommodation are intended to offset a grantee’s costs and the pool of funds is awarded on a first come, first serve basis.

Because a member may be sensitive about the request to disclose their need or reason for an accommodation, the information requested on this form, which might identify the member, should only be used and disclosed to process this reimbursement request, for aggregate reporting, and other crucial reasons which are legally permitted.  The authority for this reimbursement request includes the National and Community Service Act of 1990, as amended (42 USC 12501 et seq., see specifically sections 12592 and 12639).  Please see the Instructions for further information about this form.
