BodyWorks Parent/Caregiver Post‐Test Survey 
The Office on Women’s Health is trying to find out how well the BodyWorks program helps you, your
daughter(s), and the rest of your family. You will help improve the program by taking this survey.
This survey will take you about 30 minutes to complete. It includes questions about health habits and the
BodyWorks program that relate to you, your daughter(s), and your family. When the survey asks you
about “your daughter”, please think of your daughter who will be participating in BodyWorks for Teens as
you answer. If you have more than one daughter participating, please think of the oldest. Your survey
answers are confidential.
