Dear [TITLE] [LAST NAME],

This is a friendly reminder to complete the [first/second] part of the WIC Local Agency Breastfeeding Policy and Practices Inventory (WIC BPI) if you have not already done so. Your participation is critical to help FNS and WIC agencies across the country learn about current efforts to promote breastfeeding, and is required under the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-296). To thank your agency for participating, we will send your agency a summary report comparing your current breastfeeding measures, policies, and practices to those of other agencies within your State and FNS region, as well as the nation.

Please complete the survey by [end date]. You may access this survey online by clicking on the link below:
