Abstract	The Department of Workforce Services (DWS) asked the Utah State Board of Education (USBE) to provide a longitudinal perspective on progress toward education outcomes for students experiencing intergenerational poverty (IGP). As of 2020, students affected by IGP often had higher rates of chronic absence and lower proficiency rates than students statewide. The authors first compiled a list of USBE administered programs that serve low-income students and then looked for available data that described the extent to which students participated in these programs. They include brief, narrative descriptions of all programs identified as serving low-income students, and for programs with data, the authors provide percentages of participation. The study presented in this report had two primary goals: (1) To create a comprehensive list of programs that serve low-income students and students affected by IGP, and; (2) To determine the extent to which the students affected by IGP are accessing programs and services that are designed to serve them. Information was gathered from USBE directors and coordinators about programs they administered that were designed to serve students from low-income backgrounds. Once a list of programs was complete, the authors determined if student participation in these programs was documented in the USBE data system or if program specialists at the USBE collected and maintained program participation records. The authors found 24 programs and 12 of those programs had available data. Results are organized into three categories that differentiate the extent to which programs were specifically designed to serve low-income students: (1) General programs, those designed for all students and that may benefit low-income students; (2) Student support programs, those designed to serve and benefit students who are underserved or who need additional academic support; and Targeted low-income programs, having been created to serve and benefit low-income students.
