You have been selected to participate in a research study being conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). The purpose of this study is to highlight best practices and lessons learned from various mobile communication strategies tested in State SNAP agencies through case studies.

If you agree to participate, here are some things you should know:

  • Your participation is completely voluntary (not required) and will not affect your job in any way.

  • Your name will never be used in any reports about this interview.

  • All information collected during this study will be kept private, and your responses will not be identified individually in any way; except as required by law.

  • With your permission, the discussion will be recorded. We are talking with SNAP staff and partners across five States, so this will help us keep track of and accurately report who said what. We will not share the recording with anyone outside the research team, and we will destroy the recording when the study is over.

  • Your input will help FNS and States improve communication with clients and identify best practices that lead to improved program outcomes. This information is particularly important today because advances in mobile apps and mobile-enabled websites can help States streamline their operations while improving communication with SNAP participants.

  • You may choose not to answer any questions. You may also leave the discussion at any time. You will not be affected in any way if you stop the discussion or decide not to answer a question.

  • The discussion will last 90 minutes.

Contact Information: USDA/FNS has authorized Insight Policy Research to conduct this study. If you have any concerns about your participation in this discussion or have any questions about the study, please contact the Project Officer, Andrew Burns, at [email protected] or 703.305.1091.
