Jesse Ellis of Fairfax County’s Neighborhood & Community Services shares the five key takeaways from Fairfax County’s most recent annual youth survey. FCPS students in grades 6, 8, 10 and 12 have been voluntarily sharing their anonymous, honest thoughts and feelings for more than 20 years. The survey sheds light on the health and well-being of our student population, and gives insight on what parents and caring adults need to know about how they can help students succeed and avoid or reduce risky behaviors. Information is used to help prioritize focus for prevention and youth programming efforts throughout Fairfax County communities.
