The researcher adopted the following objectives for the study; to investigate the common types of risky behavior adopted by youth., to find out why the youth have adopted such risky behavior and to assess the negative outcomes of the youth risky behavior. Using a convenient sampling technique, a total of twenty four respondents were picked at random to participate in this study. Quantitative and qualitative methods were also used in th.is study. Finding in the study established that i-c1te of crime and violence amongst the young people of school going age was moderate as per seventeen teachers, although three teachers rated it as high. It was also established that due to poverty, some children fail to enroll in school. Also findings shows that fewer schools offered parents and caregivers support in effective parenting even fewer schools offered vocational skil.ls to young boys cmcl girls, that just in case they do not make it they can continue ecm1ing Cl living. Recommendcitions were also made. Remedial education to those young boys and girls who have already adopted at risk behavior must be provided.
