Subject: Survey of State SNAP agencies about exemptions from work requirements and good cause

Dear [Respondent Name],

We are following up on an email sent a week ago about a survey that we are conducting as part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food and Nutrition Service’s (FNS) research study to better understand how States determine whether individuals are exempted from work requirements or have good cause for not meeting work requirements due to a physical or mental limitation. For more information on our project, please see the project description attached.

A major component of this study is a survey of all 53 State SNAP agencies. The goal of the survey is to document policies, guidelines, and procedures used for determining which applicants or participants are exempt from work requirements due to physical or mental limitations, not to audit or identify actions that may be correct or incorrect. We estimate that the survey will take around 60 minutes to complete. It will include questions about topics such as your State’s policies regarding exemptions from work requirements and good cause for not meeting work requirements, as well as your State’s processes for determining physical or mental limitations. If you think that someone else in your organization may be better suited to take the survey, please forward them the link!

Deadline: Month XXth, 2022

If you have questions about the purpose of the study, please contact Eric Williams at [email protected]. If you have questions about or need assistance with the web survey, call [study phone number] or email us at [study email].

We appreciate your time and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions.

Best,
