Geauga County Regional Youth Survey Completed
During February and March of 2008, a total of 6,936 Geauga County
Students in grades 6 -12 took part in completing the Communities
that Care Youth Survey (CTC). All Geauga County schools along with
Chagrin Falls High School took part in completing the comprehensive
survey. The Geauga County Board of Mental Health and Recovery Services
wishes to thank all school superintendents, principals, and guidance
counselors who gave their time and energy to making the administration
of the CTC survey possible. The Communities that Care Youth Survey
is designed to identify the levels of risk and protective factors
that predict problem behaviors such as alcohol, tobacco and other
drug use, poor school achievement, and delinquency. The Survey also
measures the actual prevalence of drug use, violence and other antisocial
behaviors among surveyed students. The data collected and the findings
from the CTC survey will be summarized and presented in three separate
sections: ¥ Risk and protective factors ¥ Drug use ¥ Other antisocial
behaviors.
A comparison and trend analysis will be completed from data and
findings of the 2005 and 2008 Geauga County Regional Communities
That Care Survey reports. A presentation of the data results and
findings is being planned for this fall.
RESULTS AVAILABLE SOON.
