OMB 0920-0493

The school-based National Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) is a biennial survey of high school students that assesses the priority health-risk behaviors in adolescents related to the major preventable causes of mortality, morbidity, and social problems among both youth and adults in the United States. The YRBS is conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), that assesses priority health-risk behaviors related to the major preventable causes of mortality, morbidity, and social problems among both youth and adults in the United States. Minor changes incorporated into this reinstatement request include: an updated title for the information collection to accurately reflect the years in which the survey will be conducted, a slightly modified questionnaire, and the addition of a smaller study designed to assess the validity of new questions on fruit, vegetable, and energy drink intake that are being considered for inclusion on the 2027 YRBS questionnaire.

The latest form for [NCCDPHP] 2025 and 2027 NATIONAL YOUTH RISK BEHAVIOR SURVEY expires 2027-11-30 and can be found here.
