Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey (YRBS)
The latest data from the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance Survey (YRBS) are now available!  The YRBS follows six categories of risk behaviors among youth and adolescents including: sexual behavior, drug and alcohol use, tobacco, violence, injury, and nutrition and physical activity.  The recently released report covers data collected between February and December of 2003.  YRBS data are used to measure progress toward achieving Healthy People Objectives and to improve policies and programs aimed at improving health among youth and adolescents.
