Information Collection Abstract

    Title: Peace Corps Week Brochure Registration Form.
    Need For and Use of This Information: This collection of 
information is necessary because the Peace Corps' Office of Domestic 
Programs builds awareness of the continuing benefits that former 
Volunteers bring back to the United States after their service through 
its Coverdell World Wise Schools program, the Fellows/USA graduate 
fellowship program, Returned Volunteers Services program, and through 
the Peace Corps Week program. The Peace Corps Week program is in 
support of the third goal of the Peace Corps. For more than 13 years, 
programs and publications have aimed to harness the cross-cultural 
experiences of returned Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs) to foster better 
global understanding among Americans, and particularly students, 
throughout the United States.
    The information is used by the Office of Domestic Programs to send 
presentation and education materials to RPCVs, which enhances the 
quality of the presentations carried out by RPCVs to people in their 
home communities. Information is also used by Public Affairs 
Specialists to promote Peace Corps Week regionally, broadly raising 
awareness for the Peace Corps and augmenting recruiting efforts. 
Parents of currently serving Volunteers may also receive Peace Corps 
Week presentation kits.
    Respondents: Returned Peace Corps Volunteers.
    Respondents Obligation to Reply: Voluntary.
    Burden on the Public:
    a. Annual reporting burden: 500 hours.
    b. Annual record keeping burden: 0.
    c. Estimated average burden per response: 3 minutes.
    d. Frequency of response: one time.
    e. Estimated number of likely respondents: 10,000.
    f. Estimated cost to respondents: $1.15.
    Responses will be returned by postage-paid business reply card, 
fax, e-mail, and downloaded from the Peace Corps Week Web site 
(www.peacecorps.gov).
