State WIC
Agency Survey
Welcome to the State WIC Agency Survey!
Thank you for your participation in the WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Study, which is being
conducted by researchers at Abt Associates Inc. on behalf of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)
Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). The purpose of this survey is to better understand how the Loving
Support Peer Counselor Program is being implemented in your State or Indian Tribal Organization. Many
of the questions are focused on Loving Support peer counseling, while others address general
breastfeeding promotion and support activities in your State agency, which are helpful in understanding
the context in which the Loving Support peer counseling is implemented.

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, no persons are required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The valid OMB control number for this collection is 0584-0548. The
time required to complete this information collection is estimated to
average 150 minutes per response, including the time to review instructions,
search existing data resources, gather the data needed, and complete and
review the information collected.

General Instructions
Survey Structure
The State WIC Agency Survey is divided into the following topic areas:
•
•
•
•
•
•

General Breastfeeding Promotion Programs
State-Level Staff for Loving Support Peer Counseling and Other Breastfeeding Promotion
Activities
Training for Loving Support Peer Counseling
State Distribution of Funds for Loving Support Peer Counseling
State Written Guidance for Local Loving Support Peer Counseling Programs
State Data Collection about the Loving Support Peer Counseling Program

Questions for these topic areas are placed within six different modules, which may or may not be
completed by the same staff member. In fact, we expect that multiple people at the State level will need to
respond to the survey, including the State WIC director, the State breastfeeding or peer counselor
coordinator and the State WIC budget officer. Please assign a staff member to complete each of the
above modules, as appropriate for your State, and forward your invitation e-mail and letter containing
your password to these people. The navigation page that follows this introduction will allow each
respondent to jump directly to the module for which they are responsible. The first question in each
module requests the name and title of the primary respondent for that specific module; this information
may help if questions arise at a later point. Please note that this information will be kept confidential and
will not appear in any reports.
At the end of this web survey, there is a “Conclusion” page. This is the place for the State WIC director, or
designated staff member, to certify that the survey is complete. Once all six modules and the conclusion
page have been submitted, your survey will be complete.
Moving Through the Survey & Saving Responses
This web-based survey includes six modules of questions (described above), as well as this general
instruction screen, an introduction screen, navigation screen, key definition screens and a conclusion
page. As you go through this survey, you will see navigation buttons/links at the top and bottom of each
page. These features will help you move through the survey.

Introduction and Instructions

I-2

As you are completing questions within a module, please use the buttons on the bottom of the page (see
below). The “Save & Continue >>” button may be safely used to move to the next page of the survey and
save the data you just entered. The “Save & Quit” button may also be used to save data on the current
page and temporarily exit the survey. Please note, however, that the “<< Go Back” button will NOT save
data. If you click the “<< Go Back” button to view previous responses, when you return to the current
page, all questions on this page will be unanswered. If you’d like to save data before going to a previous
page, please click “Save & Continue >>” and then “<< Go Back” twice. Also, it is important that you do not
use the "Back" or "Forward" buttons on the top of your browser while in the survey. By doing so, the
survey will not work properly, and your work will not be saved.
<< Go Back

Save & Quit

Save & Continue >>

On the last page of each module, the “Save & Continue >>” button is replaced with a “Submit” button like
the one below. By clicking this button, all responses in this module will be saved and you will be directed
to the navigation page, allowing you to link to any other module you are responsible for completing. If you
have completed the modules assigned to you, press the submit button and then “Save & Quit” once you
reach the navigation screen. Before your State WIC director has certified your State’s survey as
complete, you may still return to a module that has been “submitted.”
<< Go Back

Save & Quit

Submit Responses for Module 1

On the top of each page, there are underlined phrases such as Return to Start of Survey, View General
Instructions and Go to New Module. Clicking on these "hyperlinks” will redirect you to different section of
the survey (e.g., one sends you to the start of the survey and one sends you to the navigation page,
which allows you to jump to any module in the survey). As with the “<< Go Back” button, clicking one of
these links will not save responses on the current screen. If you responded to any questions on the
current page, please click the “Save & Continue >>” or “Save & Quit” button before moving to another
section of this survey.
Multiple Respondents
As mentioned, we expect that multiple people at the State level may need to respond to this survey. If a
staff member is assigned to complete a specific module, they should click the appropriate module name
on the navigation page after this introduction. Once they are finished with their module and click the
submit button, they should click the “Save & Quit” button.
It is okay for multiple staff members to simultaneously work on questions within different modules.
However, multiple respondents must not work on the same module at the same time. If two
computers have simultaneous access to Module 1, for example, both sets of responses will be saved as
separate records. To avoid problems, please assign one person to complete each module and ask that
this person be the only one to access this module. While it is fine if this person needs to ask another
person for answers, only one staff member should be responsible for entering the data. Please note that
pages may be printed by clicking the print icon on your web browser (or, from your browser's top menu
options, select "File," and then select "Print").
If you do not have all the information on hand to answer a specific question, you may save the answers
you’ve provided and quit until you obtain the data needed. If you plan to leave your computer for an
extended amount of time to gather information, please mind the inactivity rule described below; it may be
recommended that you click “Save & Quit” and re-open the survey once you are ready to continue.

Taking a Break
The average total time to complete this survey will range between 1½ and 2½ hours. It is designed so
that you may respond at your convenience and over multiple visits to this web site. Still, if you need to
take a break for an extended period of time or have someone else work on the survey, make sure you
save any changes made on your current page and close out of the survey.
CAUTION: If you are inactive for more than 15 minutes in this survey, you will automatically be
logged out and any unsaved responses on the current page will be lost. You are considered
"inactive" if you do not move from one page to another page in the survey. If you are logged out due to
inactivity, a login screen will appear, giving you the opportunity to re-open your survey by entering your
username and password.
Opening your Survey
If you are logged out of the survey, either because of inactivity or you clicked “Save & Quit,” you may reenter the survey by either using the link in the survey invitation that was e-mailed to you, or by visiting the
following website and entering your State’s username and password:
http://mobile.checkbox.com/abtassociates/WIC_PEERC_Intro.survey
Your username and password were sent to you in the e-mailed survey invitation as well as in the letter
that was mailed to your State WIC director. Please note that your password is case sensitive. If you
cannot find this information, please click the Forgot your password? link on the login screen and enter the
e-mail address to which the original survey invitation was e-mailed; instructions will be sent to that e-mail
address allowing you to create a new password. If you create a new password it is important that all staff
members working on your State's survey are made aware of the new password.
Reviewing Completed Modules
As modules are completed, the data are submitted to the researchers at Abt Associates. Data are not
analyzed, however, until the State WIC Director (or designated staff member) certifies that the survey is
complete by completing the questions on the conclusion page. It is recommended that data be reviewed
for completeness and accuracy before the survey is certified as complete. When navigating to a module
that has been submitted, you will see a screen with the following note: "You have already completed this
survey. Click the Edit icon next to the response you wish to edit." Please click the "edit" icon (it looks like
a paper and pencil) and navigate through the pages, revising information as necessary. Please note that
the "Save & Quit" and "Submit Responses" buttons no longer appear at the bottom of the page; to save
changes to a particular page, you must click the "Save & Continue >>" button.

After all modules have been reviewed and the State WIC director, or designated staff member, certifies
that the survey is complete, click the “Finish” button. This will let us know that no further answers will be
forthcoming, and we will process your responses. You will receive a confirmation e-mail that will indicate
that your survey responses were successfully submitted to Abt Associates Inc. This e-mail will serve as
your "certificate of survey completion." Once you have indicated that your survey is complete, it is very
important that you do not modify any responses within the survey. If you need to revise a response after
certifying that the survey is completed, please contact a member of Abt's survey team by calling 1-877401-7323 or sending an e-mail to [email protected]. Someone at Abt will either update the
survey for you, or provide instructions for you to re-access your survey. Please do not re-access the
survey without first receiving permission or the wrong data may be used in the final report.
After your survey has been submitted, it will be reviewed by staff at Abt Associates. If questions arise, we
will contact you to clarify your responses.
Want to Print Your Survey?
