YRBS and CHKS Survey Results

The California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) and Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) provide information on the prevalence of behaviors practiced by young people that put their health at risk. Both surveys include content on unhealthy dietary behaviors and physical inactivity. Data results give information on overall district trends and are used in program planning and professional development. Both the YRBS and CHKS were administered in 2003 and results are summarized below.
