UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES
ROCKVILLE, MD 20857

Dear Resident:
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services is conducting a study called the National
Survey on Drug Use and Health. This study asks questions about use or non-use of alcohol,
tobacco and other substances. The study also asks about mental health and other health-related
topics relevant for all people. Since 1971, this information has been used by local, state and
national agencies for planning and providing treatment and prevention programs.
Your address was randomly chosen, through scientific methods, along with more than 200,000
others across the country. RTI International, a nonprofit organization, was selected to conduct
this study. Soon, an RTI interviewer will be in your neighborhood to give you more information.
The interviewer will carry an identification card like the example shown below.
First, the interviewer will ask a few general questions. Then the interviewer may ask one or two
members of your household to complete the full interview. It is possible no one will be chosen
to be interviewed. If anyone is chosen and completes the full interview, he or she will
receive $30 in cash.
By Federal law*, the answers you give will be kept confidential and will be used only for
statistical purposes.
Please share this information with any others in your household. Feel free to ask the interviewer
any questions you have about this study. More information is also available on the study website
at: http://nsduhweb.rti.org or you may contact us at 1-800-848-4079.
Your help is very important to this study’s success. Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,

Joel Kennet, Ph.D.
National Study Director, DHHS

Study
Description
Your address is one of several in this area randomly chosen for the 2013 National
Survey on Drug Use and Health. This study, sponsored by the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services, collects information for research and program planning by
asking about:
• tobacco, alcohol, and drug use or non-use,
• knowledge and attitudes about drugs,
• mental health, and
• other health issues.
You cannot be identified through any information you give us. Your name and address
will never be connected to your answers. Also, federal law requires us to keep all of
your answers confidential. Any data that you provide will only be used by authorized
personnel for statistical purposes according to the Confidential Information Protection
and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2002.
The screening questions take just a few minutes. If anyone is chosen, the interview will
take about an hour. You can refuse to answer any questions, and you can quit at any
time. Each person who is chosen and completes the interview will receive $30
in cash.
If you have questions about the study, call the Project Representative at 1-800-8484079. If you have questions about your rights as a study participant, call RTI’s Office of
Research Protection at 1-866-214-2043 (a toll-free number). You can also visit our
