Dear [PARTICIPANT/FORMER PARTICIPANT NAME],

We have been trying to reach you about an important survey sponsored by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS).

We need your help! We would like you to participate in a survey to learn about your WIC shopping experiences and about the WIC foods you like\liked and do\did not like. [If you no longer receive WIC, we still want to hear from you!]

We will send you a gift card! When you complete the telephone survey, we will send you a $30 Visa prepaid gift card.

Everything that you say will be private. We will not share your answers with anyone outside this study or with WIC staff. Taking the survey will not affect any benefits you may be receiving or the benefits of anyone else in your household.

We need you! You do not have to take the survey, but it would be very helpful if you did. Please call the telephone research center at [1-800-xxx-xxxx] to complete the survey so we can send you the $30 Visa prepaid card.

Sincerely,

Sarah Widor

Director, Supplemental Food Programs Division

Food and Nutrition Service
