Dear [contact name],
My name is [MIHOPE staff full name], and I am a member of the Mother and Infant Home Visiting Program Evaluation (MIHOPE) research team at MDRC. MDRC is an education and social policy research organization, and MIHOPE is a national evaluation of MIECHV-funded home visiting programs. You can find additional information on MIHOPE here or in the attached background document.
We are currently planning follow-up data collection when the MIHOPE children are in kindergarten to measure the longer-term effects of home visiting programs. Part of our follow-up includes collecting individual-level school records in [states/districts] like [state name/district name] where MIHOPE children are enrolled.
I'm reaching out to you, because the [department of education name] website lists you as the point of contact for data requests. Our team would like to schedule a 30 minute call with you for the week of [date of the Monday of the calendar week]. What is your availability for a call between [date of Monday of desired week] and [date of Friday of desired week]?
If you are no longer the point of contact, please let me know who I should reach out to regarding school records data requests in [state/district].
Thank you,
The described collection of information is voluntary and will be used to learn how home visiting programs benefit families. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for this collection is 0970-0402 and it expires on XX/XX/XXXX.
