Declaration Regarding Material Assistance (DMA) Form

Prospective employees of the City of Oberlin must complete and submit a Declaration Regarding Material Assistance/Nonassistance to a Terrorist Organization form with their employment application. A copy of this form and the Terrorist Exclusion List are included in the employment application packet.

Material Assistance, as defined by Ohio statute, means any of the following:

  1. Membership in an organization listed on the U.S. State Department’s Terrorist Exclusion List (TEL),

  2. Use of the person’s position of prominence within any country to persuade others to support an organization on the TEL,

  3. Knowingly soliciting funds or other things of value for an organization on the TEL,

  4. Solicitation of any individual for membership in an organization on the TEL,

  5. Commission of an act that a person knows, or reasonably should have known, affords material support or resources to an organization on the TEL,

  6. Hiring or compensating a person known by the person hiring or providing compensation to be a member of an organization on the TEL, or a person known by the person hiring or providing compensation to be engaged in planning, assisting in or carrying out an act of terrorism.

Refusing to disclose the provision of material assistance once it has knowingly been provided or making false statements on the DMA is a fifth degree felony. Any applicant that provides false disclosure is further permanently banned from conducting business with or seeking funding from any state agency, instrumentality of the state, or political subdivision of the state.
