In 2013, the fifth BC Adolescent Health Survey (BC AHS) was completed by nearly 30,000 students in grades 7 to 12 in public schools across British Columbia. Sexual health was one of many topics covered in the survey. Youth were asked about their sexual health behaviours and sexual experiences.

This report is the sixth in a series of Population-Specific Status Reports and examines how HIV and other sexually transmitted and blood borne infections (STBBIs) impact youth in Canada.
