Subject: Invitation to Participate in a Phone Interview about the National Center on Early Head Start Child Care Partnerships

Dear [FIRST NAME] [LAST NAME]

As you may recall, in the summer of [2016/2018] you completed a survey about your experiences with the National Center on Early Head Start Child Care Partnership (NCEHS-CCP). As you may know, Mathematica Policy Research conducted the survey as part of the NCEHS-CCP Evaluation commissioned by the NCEHS-CCP at ZERO TO THREE and funded by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

To follow up on the survey, we would like to contact you for a one hour phone interview about your experiences with the supports you have received from NCEHS-CCP. Participation is voluntary; however, your input will provide important information about NCEHS-CCP.

The interview will explore in more detail the T/TA support you have received from NCEHS-CCP, how that support has informed your work with EHS-CCP grantees, the quality of the support, successes and challenges, and suggestions for improvement. Your insight would be a valuable addition to the evaluation.

We would like to schedule the telephone interview at a date and time that is most convenient you. Please let me know which of the following times would work for you to talk with me:

If these times do not work for you, please suggest a few alternative times.

If you have any questions about your participation, please contact [NAME] at Mathematica Policy Research at [TELEPHONE] or [EMAIL]. Your time and contributions to this important study are greatly appreciated, and we look forward to speaking with you.

Sincerely,

[NAME]
