Data were drawn from the 2015 Florida Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a school-based survey of high school students from grades 9 to 12 that is conducted biennially. The YRBS estimates six types of health-risk behaviors that contribute to the disability of young youth and the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. The six health risk behaviors are unintentional injuries, tobacco use, sexual health behaviors, dietary, physical activity, and alcohol use. Overall, 6.4 % of students were involved in both kinds of bullying (in-person and electronic bullying); 7.6% in in-person bullying; 4.4% in electronic bullying; and 81.6% of students were uninvolved in bullying. This study adds to previous findings and emphasizes that bullying does not come about in seclusion, but is a pattern of risk behaviors or stipulations, such as school and sexual violence, suicide, substance use, and unhealthy weight control practices.</p>","PeriodicalId":73034,"journal":{"name":"Florida public health review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9979265/pdf/nihms-1873237.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9078665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During the period of assessment of lead-levels in soil, there were no established lines of communication between the City and residents of affected neighborhoods resulting in mistrust in the community. To address communication issues, a community-based, culturally sensitive Community Environmental Toxicology Curriculum (CETC) and a short video were developed for community stakeholders to inform them of risks, health effects, remediation processes and preventive measures. Pre-and post-tests were developed to measure knowledge gained from the toxicology training. Learning gains averaged 47% and 24% for the community leaders and residents respectively.
