for the National Survey of Early Care and Education are now in your area and
are following up with programs selected for the survey sample,
including centers and family child care providers, who have not yet completed
the survey. Survey administration must end in May,
so NORC is now making a final push to ensure survey
completion rates are as high as possible. We are still following up with
quite a few programs in your area; you can make a big difference by encouraging
providers to participate. Would you be able to post an
announcement or note about the NSECE in your next newsletter, on your
website, and/or in any other communications with providers? Even if you
have done so previously, this would be very helpful as a reminder. High
survey response rates are critical to generating accurate information
on early care and education. </span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
