Dear [TITLE] [LAST NAME]:

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) and Mathematica Policy Research would like to thank you once again for participating in the WIC Local Agency Breastfeeding Policy and Practices Inventory (WIC BPI). The survey will help us learn more about State and local WIC agencies’ breastfeeding policies and practices, how breastfeeding outcomes are measured, and obtain current estimates of these outcomes. Information from the WIC BPI will help FNS as well as State and local WIC agencies learn about the policies and practices agencies use to promote breastfeeding and the ways in which breastfeeding is measured.

As promised at the beginning of the study, we have enclosed an Agency Summary Report for your agency as well as information about how the numbers were compiled and how to interpret them.

Once again we would like to thank you for your participation. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at jmabli@mathematica-mpr.com or 617-301-8997.

Sincerely,

James Mabli, Ph.D.

Project Director
