The
Iowa Youth Survey
is a joint effort conducted by The Iowa Dept. of Public Health’s
Division of Behavioral Health, Iowa Department of Education, Office
of Drug Control Policy, Iowa Department of Human Rights, Criminal
and Juvenile Justice Planning and Statistical Analysis Center, and
Iowa Workforce Development.
In
the fall of 1999, 2002, 2005, and 2008 students in the 6th, 8th, and 11th
grades across the state of Iowa answered questions about their attitudes
and experiences regarding substance abuse and violence, and their
perceptions of their peer, family, school, and neighborhood/community
environments.
Survey
reports list responses to every question on the survey, providing
total percentages and breakdowns by grade and gender. Youth development
construct results are included in the 2005 reports.
Reports
are available in the following categories: State of Iowa, Counties,
Judicial Districts, DECAT Regions, Department of Human Services
Regions, and the Department of Public Health's Substance Abuse Treatment
and Substance Abuse Prevention Planning Regions.
