Proposed Project

    The National School-based Youth Risk Behavior Survey, OMB No. 0920-
0493--Reinstatement with change--National Center for Chronic Disease 
Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control 
and Prevention (CDC).
    The purpose of this request is to renew OMB clearance to continue 
an ongoing biennial survey among high school students attending regular 
public, private, and Catholic schools in grades 9-12. Data will be 
collected in the Spring of 2005 and the Spring of 2007 to assess 
priority health risk behaviors related to the major preventable causes 
of mortality, morbidity, and social problems among both youth and 
adults in the U.S. OMB clearance for the 2003 Youth Risk Behavior 
Survey (OMB No. 0920-0493) expired November 2003.
    Data on the health risk behaviors of adolescents is the focus of 
approximately 40 national health objectives in Healthy People 2010. The 
Youth Risk Behavior Survey provides data to measure at least 10 of 
these health objectives and 3 of the 10 Leading Health Indicators. In 
addition, the Youth Risk Behavior Survey can identify racial and ethnic 
disparities in health risk behaviors. No other national source of data 
measures as many of the 2010 objectives that address behaviors of 
adolescents. The data will also have significant implications for 
policy and program development for school health programs nationwide. 
There are no costs to respondents. The estimated annualized burden over 
the three-year period is 6,115 hours.
