AGENCY INVOLVEMENT IN COMMUNITY RELATIONS PROGRAMS
1. The Civil Service Commission encourages Federal agencies to
include participation in community relations programs as part of their
Equal Employment and Affirmative Action Plans. In the past the Agency
has not been extensively involved in such programs.
2. It will be the policy of the Agency to engage in community
relations programs in accordance with its responsibilities as a member
of the Federal family of agencies. The programs I approve will be
within the limits of existing authority and will reflect our responsi-
bility as an intelligence agency. Examples include but are not limited
to the following:
a. Developing orientation programs at headquarters
to acquaint students and other citizens with the mission,
function, and working environment of the Agency.
b. Participating in programs in which the Agency
would explain its involvement in particular disciplines
such as engineering, photoscience, cartography, and
computer science.
c. Cooperating with community organizations, such
as schools, civic groups, etc.
d. Exploring the feasibility of voluntary tutorial
programs that would aid in the development of community
students for Federal employment.
In pursuit of the goals and objectives of the Agency's Equal
Employment and Affirmative Action Plans during the year, the Office of
Equal Employment Opportunity, the Office of Personnel, the four Direc-
torates, and the Independent Offices will consider potential community
relations programs and ensure that they are properly coordinated with
appropriate components. I urge your cooperation and participation, and
solicit your suggestions.
