Young Adult Surveys

The Virginia Young Adult Survey (YAS) is a biennial survey of Virginia residents ages 18 to 25 that serves to create a better understanding of the behavioral health needs and experiences among young adults. YAS efforts are funded by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services (DBHDS), Office of Behavioral Health and Wellness (OBHW), and conducted by Community Service Boards across Virginia in partnership with the OMNI Institute.
