"In March 2007, the NH Youth Risk
Behavior Survey (YRBS) was completed by more than 1500 Cheshire
County students in grades 9-12. The YRBS is a national,
representative survey of high school students developed by the CDC
and administered in each state biennially. This factsheet looks at
the risk behaviors of teens in our region. It reviews behaviors
related to alcohol and other drugs, teen sexual practices and other
health concerns. How often do teens drink and use drugs? What other
risks do teens take? Is this part of growing up? Should we be
concerned?”
