Dear [NAME],

In partnership with the National Sheriffs’ Association, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is conducting the Sheriffs’ Advice-Seeking Survey. The purpose of this survey is to collect information about advice-seeking on adopting evidence-based strategies to help people re-entering the community after incarceration. Additionally, the survey will gather information on the uptake of these strategies among state and local sheriff organizations.

We are inviting you to participate in this survey as you have been identified as an individual who oversees or helps implement the re-entry services available in your jail. The survey will take approximately 7 minutes to complete. Your personal identity will be kept confidential. The completed surveys will be kept secure and separate from any information that identifies you such as your name.

Next week we will be in touch again via email and will provide a link to the survey. Your participation in this important quality improvement initiative is greatly appreciated.

If you have any questions regarding the survey or participation, please contact XXXXXXX at XXXXXXXX.

Thank you in advance for your time and participation in this important study.

Thank you,

[NAME]
