The Central Intelligence Agency has forwarded to us a
copy of your recent letter in which you request a copy of
the publication "Intelligence Professions."
Just as the Peace Corps does not accept as volunteers or
staff members those people who have served with an intelli-
gence agency, so the Peace Corps has asked, and the intelli-
gence agencies have agreed, not to employ former Peace
Corps volunteers for at least four years after the comple-
tion of their service in the Peace Corps, and, if employed
after such period, not to assign the former volunteer to
any country in which he had trained or served with the
Peace Corps. The Central Intelligence Agency is one of
the agencies which has agreed not to employ a former
volunteer or staff member in any capacity for at least
four years following termination of Peace Corps service.
I know that you as a Peace Corps volunteer understand the
reasoning behind this policy. As the Peace Corps has lost
some talented people as volunteers or staff members because
of their background in intelligence work, so the intelligence
agencies have lost the services of some able men and women
who have previously served in the Peace Corps, but we
believe that these sacrifices are justified by the public
interest in preventing any relationship, or any appearance
of a relationship, between the Peace Corps and intelligence
agencies.
Sincerely yours,
STATINTL
