PORTRAIT OF 6TH GRADERS IN MONTRÉAL

Résumé

Almost all grade 6 students attending school on the island of Montréal participated in the TOPO 2017 survey, which focuses on factors influencing health and educational success. The latter is among the components with the greatest impact on young people’s current and future health.

Adult health status is the result of personal and environmental characteristics that are often linked to the surroundings in which children are born and grow up. Children from disadvantaged areas are more likely to accumulate risk factors that can affect health and, over the long term, be in poorer health than youth from more affluent areas.

Results of the 2017 TOPO Survey are being released for the first time in this report. Future documents will provide data by district and delve deeper into some of the themes presented here.
