[Mailing Address of ADCC Program Director]

Subject: CACFP Adult Day Care Center Food Safety Education Needs

Dear [insert ADCC Program Director’s name]:

We recently mailed you a package regarding participating in a brief Survey of Food Safety Education Needs of CACFP Adult Day Care Centers. The study will allow FNS to identify the food safety training and education needs of ADCC program directors and improve how FNS provides them with information (training and resources) to support their needs. Your answers will help USDA find useful ways to provide your center with resources and guidance. In addition to providing us with valuable data, your answers represent other centers like yours across the country.

We encourage your center to complete this brief survey that will take only 20 minutes, on average.

This survey should be filled out by the staff member who knows the most about foodservice and the food safety training and education needs of your center. We have included the survey to complete and a prepaid envelope to mail the survey back by [insert date].

If you or your staff have any other questions about this survey or would like to complete the survey over the phone, please contact the study team by email at [email protected] or at 1-833-728-7369 (toll-free) from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday to Friday EST. If you call outside of these hours, please leave a message, and we will return your call the following business day.

Thank you again for your participation in this study.

Sincerely,

Dr. Hiren Nisar, Project Director

Director of Analytics and Senior Economist | 2M Research
