About Appalachia Service Project

ASP provides one of the most rewarding structured service opportunities in the nation — bringing thousands of volunteers from around the country to rural Central Appalachia to repair homes for low-income families. Appalachia Service Project is a Christian ministry, open to all people, that inspires hope and service through volunteer home repair and replacement in Central Appalachia.

Responsibilities

ASP summer staff members work in teams of four, running the volunteer program at an ASP summer center. Each week, summer staff welcome a new group of volunteers and make sure that they provide quality home repairs to Appalachian families.
Summer staff members help volunteers develop meaningful relationships with those families, while making sure the volunteers’ needs—from food to tools and materials to rest and encouragement—are being met. Summer Staff serve as mentors and role models for the middle and high school youth volunteer who participate in ASP’s mission.
Every evening when the volunteers gather at the center tired and fulfilled, summer staff lead spiritual programs to help them volunteers unpack their experience while learning more about Appalachia and themselves.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
