Profiles of Adolescents who are Not in Good Health 

Health affects children’s immediate well-being and success, and it also has lifelong implications for educational, social and economic success. This article uses data from the 2011/2012 National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH) to describe adolescents who are in poor health and compare their personal, family, and neighborhood characteristics to those of healthier adolescents.
