The Youth Risk Behavior
Survey (YRBS) is a
self-administered,
school-based,
confidential, and
anonymous survey that
was conducted in the
Duval County Public
Schools during the
spring of 2009. This is
part of a national
effort by the Centers
for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) to
obtain information
pertaining to youth
social behaviors. These
behaviors include but
are not limited to:
violence, safety, sex,
nutrition and weight
management, suicide, and
more. In the 27
middle
schools in Duval County,
