Abstract

Description

The 2017 Nevada Middle School YRBS provides statewide data to assess priority health-risk behaviors among middle school students; measure progress toward achieving national health objectives for Healthy People 2020 and other program and policy indicators; and evaluate the impact of school and community interventions at the national, state, and local level. It is our intention that these data will be used by education and health professionals, policy makers, community members, and researchers to improve the health of Nevada's middle school students. This report focuses on 2017 YRBS data from Washoe County Middle Schools (16 Middle Schools and 1,253 students).
