Health-risk behaviors cluster or co-occur among youth populations [1-3], leading to increased risk for overweight/obesity and related chronic illnesses [4]. However, evidence specific to middle- school aged youth remains limited. In the current study the prevalence of multiple risk behaviors among middle-school aged youth are described and examined for co-occurrence. Outcomes are expected to inform the development of future research and intervention efforts among similar youth populations
