B10. Sponsor Follow-up Email with Request to Email Providers

Send to: [SPONSOR]

Subject: Help contacting your provider(s) that have been selected for FCCH Provider Experience Survey

Dear [Sponsor Contact Name]:

We need your help!

We are currently collecting survey data for the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA’s) Family Child Care Home (FCCH) Provider Experience Survey. We have heard back from some of your providers and are hoping that the others will also complete the survey soon. We understand how busy they are, so we have kept the survey brief (20 minutes). Providers will also receive a $40 gift card.

Please help us by:

• Visiting the study website at www.FCCHSurvey.com to securely access the list of your providers who have not responded to the survey.

• Updating the providers’ contact information, if needed.

• Letting us know if any of the providers are no longer under your sponsorship.

• Sending an email to the providers who have not responded to the survey – even if they are not under your sponsorship at this time – asking them to be on the lookout for a paper survey in the mail, and encouraging them to complete the survey. To save you time, we have included a template email with this information in both English and Spanish. Please edit the template as needed.

Thank you in advance for your help in this important study.

Sincerely,
