Dear [SUA /AAA/Tribal organization Contact Name]:

We are writing to again to request your participation in an important survey sponsored by the Administration for Community Living (ACL) called the Aging Network Partnerships and Effectiveness Survey. ACL has partnered with Mathematica, the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (n4a), and ADvancing States to conduct this survey as part of a larger study. Through the survey, ACL hopes to learn about how agencies and organizations in the Aging Network collaborate to improve the lives of older adults, and how it determines the effectiveness of these efforts. We are reaching out to you with two requests:

**Please complete the survey on behalf of your [Stat Unit on Aging (SUA), Area Agency on Aging (AAA)/Older Americans Act (OAA) Title VI Native American tribal organization] today!** The survey will take **about 10 minutes to complete**. It asks questions about forming partnerships with other organizations, how COVID-19 may have impacted those partnerships, and how [SUAs/AAAs/OAA Title VI Native American tribal organizations] evaluate the costs and benefits of the services they provide.  Please use the login information below to access the survey online. You can complete the survey on a computer, tablet, cell phone, or mobile device.
