Funded Partners: State, Territorial, and Local Agencies and
Tribal Governments
Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS)
CDC provides funding for state, territorial, and local education agencies;
state health agencies; and tribal governments to establish or strengthen
systematic procedures to monitor critical health-related behaviors among
high-school students through implementation of the YRBS. CDC/DASH-funded
partners are
- Completing the YRBS on a biannual basis to obtain health risk behavior
data representative of students in grades 9–12 in their jurisdiction.
- Communicating and disseminating data results through a variety of
methods to government officials; state, territorial, tribal government,
and local agencies; nongovernmental organizations; institutions of
higher education; institutions targeting underserved or at-risk
populations; the media; and the general public.
- Using YRBS data to help develop and improve programs and policies
for youth and to identify health disparities impacting youth.
- Establishing and maintaining effective partnerships with
stakeholders that can help promote, implement, disseminate, and use YRBS
data for policy and program improvement.
