Dear Resident:

Over the past few months, we have contacted you to ask you to complete the final part of the National
Survey of Children’s Health. We conduct this important survey for the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services.
The survey provides vital information about the health status and needs of our nation’s children. This
information gives the public insights into how the youngest members of our society are doing and what they
need to thrive.
