Fact Sheets

These fact sheets contain results from the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) and School Health Profiles (Profiles) related to tobacco use. The YRBS results describe the problem by identifying the percent of high school students who smoke cigarettes and who use other tobacco products including smokeless tobacco. The Profiles results describe characteristics of health education, partnerships between schools and the community, and the school environment among middle/junior and senior high schools that may help address the problem.

Weighted data represent the state or district. With weighted data, it is possible to say, for example, "X% of high school students in our state smoked cigarettes in the past month."
