Dear [PARTICIPANT FNAME] [PARTICIPANT LNAME]:

Recently, we contacted you about the Evaluation of the Public Education Campaign on Teen Tobacco (ExPECTT) follow-up survey. As of [ADD CURRENT DATE], our records show that you have not completed the survey. If you have recently completed the survey, thank you for participating. You are one of more than 4,000 participants taking part in this study and your continued participation is critical to the success of this important research.

Please consider completing the survey as soon as possible. You can complete the survey on the web. Those completing the survey through the website by [DEADLINE] will be offered $25 as a token of appreciation. This incentive will be provided via email as a digital gift card.

Your participation in this study will provide the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), policy makers, and researchers important information about exposure to public education messages on the health risks of smoking or using other tobacco products. The information collected by this study will also improve our understanding of how public education campaigns affect attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors toward tobacco use. FDA has hired RTI International (RTI), a not-for-profit survey research organization, to conduct the study.

Your help with this round of the study is voluntary, and greatly appreciated. All the information that you provide will be kept private to the fullest extent allowable by law and used only for statistical purposes.
