From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) administers the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act for the United States Secretary of Defense. FVAP is responsible for educating U.S. citizens worldwide of their right to vote, increasing participation, and enhancing the electoral process at the Federal, State and local levels.

FVAP is also responsible for administering the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 for U.S. citizens abroad. FAVP allows eligible citizens to register to vote at 6000 Armed Forces Recruitment Offices nationwide.
