Issuing agencies

Abstract

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS, operating as AmeriCorps) is issuing a public notice of its intent to create the AmeriCorps Privacy Act system of records "Personal Health and Religious Information." This system of records maintains personal health and religious information collected in response to (1) medical- based and religious-based reasonable accommodation requests; (2) public health emergency or similar health and safety incidents, such as a pandemic, epidemic, or man-made emergency; and/or (3) any other lawful collection of health-related information that is necessary to ensure a safe and healthy environment for individuals who are occupying AmeriCorps facilities, attending AmeriCorps-sponsored events, participating in AmeriCorps programs, or otherwise engaged in official business on behalf of the agency. The system of records will assist the agency in the collection, storing, dissemination, and disposal of personal health and religious information collected and maintained by the agency.
