In your jurisdiction, we will focus on the implementation of [LIST ACTIVITY/ACTIVITIES]. A copy of the interview guide is attached for your consideration.

The interview will take approximately 60 minutes and participation in this interview is completely voluntary.

The information collected from this evaluation will be used by the CDC to

• Improve implementation of OD2A components.

If you have additional questions about the interview, please do not hesitate to contact the Project Director, Dr. Stephen Tregear ([email protected]), or the Project Manager, Hema Desai ([email protected]).

Thank you so much.
