Notes

Data from the Communities That Care Survey administered annually.  Data represent academic year. Not all counties participate. N/A if the county did not have enough participants that year. Must have 2+ years of data to get a slope. Due to 2015 changes in legislation requiring opt-in parent consent for surveys in schools, statewide participation is not comparable to previous years and a decision was made not to report.
