Fewer N.J. teens are sexually active, data shows

Recent CDC data shows that fewer N.J. teenagers are sexually active, continuing a decline that began over a decade ago.

"Sexual active" is defined by the CDC as having "had sexual intercourse with at least one person, during the 3 months before the survey." Data is broken down by sex and does not contain a category for those who identify outside of "male" or "female." Data includes students in grades 9-12.
