PLAIN WRITING ACT OF 2010
The Office of Inspector General is committed to the principles of the Plain Writing Act of 2010, which requires all Federal agencies to communicate with their taxpayer-stakeholders in a straightforward manner. We strive to make all of our reports and other public information as clear and concise as possible. You have a right to know what the OIG is doing with your tax dollars to detect and deter waste, fraud and abuse in National Service programs. We have a responsibility to make our work as transparent as possible by adhering to the standards of the Plain Writing Act.
