National Resources for Finding Respondents


These are generally listed in order from more general sources to more specific ones.

TRW (National Credit Bureau)

1-800-392-1122
If you have the SSN and name, TRW is probably the best place to start.
Some Internet Directories:

Yahoo People Search
abii.com
switchboard.com
geocities.com
One can do some searches with just the name, but with common names, there will be hundreds of matches. The more information about the person’s whereabouts, the more luck you will have.
Social Security Location Service (Baltimore, MD: area code 301)

1-800-772-1213
6401 Security Blvd.
Baltimore, MD 21234

The Social Security Location Services will not release people’s addresses but will pass on information for you (e.g., that you are looking for a participant).
National Driver Registration Service

US Department of Commerce
1717 H Street
