The Connecticut School Health Survey (CSHS) is a school-based survey of students in grades 9 - 12, with randomly chosen classrooms within selected schools, and is anonymous and confidential. It is also nationally known as the Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS). The health survey previously had two components, the Youth Behavior Component (YBC), and Youth Tobacco Component (YTC), and has been successfully administered in Connecticut since 2005. Starting in 2019, there will be just one survey component. You can download and view the 2019 CSHS questionnaire (PDF).
You can explore Connecticut results using CDC's Youth Online interactive web tool. Please visit the DPH Tobacco Use and Prevention Program website for more Youth Tobacco Survey Results.
