Several representatives from delayed intervention coalitions also helped to generate ideas and make recommendations for changes to the survey over a web-assisted call. Finally, in response to a decision made by the work group and endorsed by other coalition representatives, the study team revised survey mailing materials to include photographs of iconic features of their communities, so that we could tailor the look of survey materials for each community. To achieve this, the study team enlisted both intervention and delayed intervention coalitions to help identify which features would be appropriate and to provide photographs of well-known community landmarks. These and other changes that were made to the survey following the first fielding contributed to an almost 50% increase in responses between the first fielding and the fourth fielding of the survey.
