I've been a national volunteer for my org for the past seven years in multiple capacities, and I've never had to sign such an agreement.
It does seem a tad sketchy to require such a thing. What information is Alpha Phi sharing with VOLUNTEERS that would create such a problem for them if it was released outside the org?
I also imagine that because this NDA is so vague, there would be no justifiable legal recourse by Alpha Phi. I've dealt with NDAs on a limited basis at my job as an insurance underwriter. When handling coverage for large, nationally-known companies, they usually have insurance carriers sign NDAs, knowing that if we're to consider writing such a large policy, we're going to request their payroll and financial records, for example.
Typically, as I understand it, NDAs are used in business transactions. And more and more, there are laws being made to specifically state that NDAs cannot be used to "buy someone's silence" (in a case of discrimination, sexual assault, etc.). If that's what Alpha Phi is attempting to do here, I don't see the law landing on their side.
But perhaps some legal experts can chine in here. Kevin?
