    OMB Control Number: 3045-0196.

    Abstract: AmeriCorps seeks to revise the current information 
collection, which was for requests for health and religious 
accommodations that were specific to seeking exemptions from the COVID-
19 vaccination requirement, but with this revision, AmeriCorps is 
revising the forms to cover all requests for health and religious 
accommodations. This information collection allows AmeriCorps to 
collect information in support of individuals' requests for religious 
and medical accommodations, made for sincerely held religious beliefs, 
practices, or observances. The forms associated with this system of 
records will facilitate the processing of requests for accommodations. 
These forms allow AmeriCorps to collect information in support of 
individuals' requests for any religious and medical accommodation, so 
that AmeriCorps can act on those requests as appropriate. The 
information is collected on two separate forms: one for requests for 
religious accommodation and one for requests for medical accommodation. 
The current information collection is due to expire on June 30, 2022.

Lisa Gray,
Acting Director of Civil Rights.
