Did you know there are important “firsts” in the 2023 national YRBS data?

The 2023 YRBS included a question asking students whether they identify as transgender, questioning, or cisgender. Additionally, the survey includes new measures related to frequent social media use, unfair discipline at school, and experiences of racism in school. This is also the first time a supplemental sample of American Indian/Alaska Native students have been included.
