Dear [Name] :
We need your help with an important survey sponsored by the Administration for Community Living
(ACL). ACL has partnered with Mathematica, USAging, and ADvancing States to learn about how the
Aging Network collaborates to improve the lives of older adults, and how it determines the effectiveness
of these efforts. Our goal is to hear from all Area Agencies on Aging (AAA) and Older Americans Act
(OAA) Title VI Native American tribal organizations.
Please click on the link below to access the survey online today! It will take about 15 minutes to
complete. It asks questions about forming partnerships with other organizations, how COVID-19 may
have impacted those partnerships, and how [AAAs/OAA Title VI Native American tribal organizations]
evaluate the costs and benefits of the services they provide. You can complete the survey on a computer,
tablet, cell phone, or other mobile device.

Dear [SUA Contact Name]:
You may have recently received a letter from us regarding an important survey sponsored by the
Administration for Community Living (ACL). ACL has partnered with Mathematica, USAging, and
ADvancing States to learn about how the Aging Network collaborates to improve the lives of older adults,
and how it determines the effectiveness of these efforts. Our goal is to hear from all State Units on Aging
(SUAs), Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs), and Older Americans Act (OAA) Title VI Native American
tribal organizations in this survey.
We are reaching out to you with two requests:
1. Please click on the link below to complete the survey on behalf of your SUA. It will take
about 15 minutes to complete. The survey asks questions about forming partnerships with other
organizations, how COVID-19 may have impacted those partnerships, and how SUAs evaluate
the costs and benefits of the services they provide. You can also preview the survey questions
here. If you feel that someone else at your organization is better suited to filling out the survey,
please click on the survey link to provide their information.

2. We would also like to request your endorsement of the survey. Next week, we will be sending out
email invitations to AAAs and OAA Title VI Native American tribal organizations asking them
to complete the survey as well. We would greatly appreciate if you could encourage the AAAs in
your state to participate in the survey.
The information that you provide in this survey will only be accessible to the evaluation team and ACL.
Individual responses will be grouped with others in published evaluation reports.
If you have any questions, please email [STUDY EMAIL ADDRESS] or call Mathematica’s toll-free
