GPRA 9: Number and percent of children who consume five or more servings of fruits and vegetables daily.

Guidance Document Definition. The Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) contains a nationally validated set of survey questions about fruit/vegetable consumption for youth. However, it asks about the number of times a day each youth consumed fruits and vegetables during the previous week rather than the number of daily servings (as the original GPRA was written). Due to the relative ease for Promise Neighborhoods to implement the YRBS questions in a school climate survey, Promise Neighborhoods should collect information about the number of times a day middle and high school students at the target Promise Neighborhood schools consumed fruits and vegetables during the past seven days instead of determining whether students consumed at least five servings of fruits and vegetables daily.

Our definition conforms to the guidance document. Our measurement tool is a school climate survey. A copy is located below.
