The Adolescent Health Data Book

The Adolescent Health Data Book provides a broad range of accessible information about young people’s health and the conditions that affect it. It covers topics across the Key Priorities of the Minnesota Partnership for Adolescent Health.  

The Minnesota Partnership for Adolescent Health is convened by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and comprised of professionals representing the state, counties, schools, community agencies, and faith groups that work for and with young people.  

MNPAH convened and created an action plan in 2017-2018 and updated the plan in 2023. The data book is designed as a companion to the plan.

Like the Partnership, this data book was created to motivate, engage, and inspire action.  

Who should use this data book?

Local public health, health educators, schools, health care providers, and anyone who works with or cares about adolescents. Teens can use this data book to help with research or leadership projects.

How can you use the data book?

  • Explore and learn about the status of key health priorities for adolescents in Minnesota.
  • Share the data.  
    • Use the data book and visualizations to highlight the importance of your community’s continued participation in the Minnesota Student Survey.
    • Use the data and visualizations to support your own adolescent health work.  
  • Share data points to inspire action. Discuss this data with youth, parents, and other members of your community. Together, find what resonates and decide to make change. The action steps and resources within the Minnesota Partnership for Adolescent and Youth Health Action Plan are a great place to start.

How do we define adolescents?

For the purposes of this data book, and within the Partnership’s adolescent health communications, adolescents are people ages 10 to 25 unless otherwise noted.
