NEW Blog Post: Elevated Concern for Girls & LGBTQ+ Youth

We were saddened to see the data in the report of the CDC’s Youth Risk Behavior Survey that shows that all youth are struggling with threats to their health and well-being and that many of these trends have worsened over the last decade.

We have seen similar trends in our surveys of more than 250,000 students over the past decade. Continue reading to see how our data looks at some of the underlying issues behind mental health and well-being for teens.

It’s not too late to survey your students this school year. Work with us to gather real data about sleep, stress, academic engagement, and more through our surveys.

Our powerful analytics allow school leaders to disaggregate data by identity markers such as race, gender, and gender identity.

Together, we will go beyond the data to analyze your results and empower you to take steps to improve student well-being, engagement, and belonging in your school, especially for historically marginalized student populations.
