Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS)
In the spring of every odd numbered year, NC Healthy Schools implements a statewide Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS). The NC YRBS helps assess behaviors in youth that impact their health now and in the future. Topics include violence, personal safety, physical activity, nutrition , mental health, tobacco, drugs and alcohol, protective factors and sexual behavior questions (for high school students only). Help us continue implementing the YRBS by letting us know how you use and support the YRBS.
