SWYS - 1994 Acknowledgements
Many people contributed assistance and support to the Grant
County Teen Assessment Project (SWYS) report. They realized
the need and value of local data on risk behaviors affecting
youth.
Special thanks to teachers who cooperated in the administration
of the survey, the parents who allowed their children to participate
and the 2,423 students who gave their thoughtful responses.
The school SWYS coordinators need to be recognized for the hours
spent evaluating the survey, gathering input from students, teachers,
administrators, and parents. Their efforts also include
coordinating the administration of SWYS in the school. The

- Barb Cnare and Caron Townsend - Bloomington
- Bruce Boyum - Cassville
- Nicholene Crick - Fennimore
- Angela Belken - Iowa-Grant
- Steve Curley, Lori Morris, Ron Meissner and Gary Swanstrom
