Why This Indicator Matters
Definitions:
This indicator reports the average percentage of students in grades 9 through 12 at high schools participating in the 2017 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) who said they had a drink of alcohol at least once in the past 30 days. This data is displayed by Regional Public Health Network.
465 students were excluded from this analysis. Central NH, Carroll County, South Central, and Seacoast Public Health Regions are not weighted and are excluded from this analysis due to low overall response rate (<60%).
2017 YRBS question: 41. During the past 30 days, on how many
days did you have at least one drink of
alcohol?
