WEBINAR #5: THE PA YOUTH SURVEY
August 22nd at 12pm

The Pennsylvania Youth Survey (PAYS) is an anonymous, confidential, and voluntary survey completed by youth in grades 6, 8, 10, and 12 every other year in school districts across Pennsylvania. The survey asks students questions about the behaviors and attitudes that are risks to their success as well as the positive (protective) things that occur in their lives that lead to success. The survey is conducted by the Pennsylvania Commission on Crime and Delinquency (PCCD) and for the first time ever will be offered to all school districts in the Commonwealth completely free of charge through a partnership between the Department of Education (PDE), the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs (DDAP), and PCCD.
