The information gathered in this survey is critical to understanding children’s health care needs, both in your state and across the country. Your household was scientifically selected from all of the households in the country and your response represents thousands of other households. The U.S. Census Bureau is not permitted to publicly release your responses in a way that could identify your household. By law, the Census Bureau can only use your responses for statistical research.

Your response is vital to the success of this survey. Thank you again for your participation. We hope to hear from you soon.
