This is from NHQ Web Page for Cadets- (The CAP commander does not keep track of the cadet's community service. They submit the verifying letter or letters from organizations where the cadet has done community service.)
We occasionally receive queries about how to process the Community Service Ribbon for cadets. CAPR 39-3, Award of CAP Medals, Ribbons, and Certificates, Chapter 21.i, states that the unit simply attaches the "60 hours of community service verified by a volunteer coordinator" to the CAPF 2a. The wing commander is the approval authority for this type of 2a request (unless he or she has delegated this responsibility to the squadron/group commander in accordance with the same regulation).
There are a few assumptions about this ribbon:
1. That the community service occurred outside of CAP.
2. That a CAP member is not verifying the cadet’s community service (unless, of course, this CAP member can speak for the outside organization, and sign the verifying letter for the outside organization).
3. The regulation does not require that the verification be on an organizational letterhead, but most outside agencies would probably use their letterheads when verifying someone’s volunteer participation.
4. There are no devices currently authorized for this ribbon.

We have coordinated this clarification with the author of CAPR 39-3 (Susie Parker), so that she will have this information available to her when CAPR 39-3 is available for review.
