Dear [FIRST NAME] [LAST NAME],

Thank you for enrolling in the Youth Transition Exploration Demonstration (YTED) about a year ago. The Social Security Administration (SSA) awarded a grant to Mathematica, an independent research company, to study YTED and conduct the survey.

I am writing to encourage you to take part in this survey.

Your input matters!

• You will receive a $50 gift card for completing the 20-minute survey. Your response is vital to the success of the study.

• Even if you did not receive services from YTED, we still need to hear from you.

• Your privacy is important. We will not share your answers in any way that reveals who you are. We will combine your answers with everyone who takes part in the survey and use them only for research.

• The survey is voluntary. You may skip any questions you do not want to answer. Your decision about the survey will not affect any benefits you receive, now or in the future.

Please call Mathematica toll-free at 1-8xx-xxx-xxxx to complete your interview or make an appointment to complete it in the future.

Sincerely,

Stacie Feldman
