A study was done of the numbers and educational status of homeless children in the state of Utah in 1992. A survey was conducted using data provided by 31 shelters statewide and included children and youth who were provided shelter at any time during the year. The total count included 4,424 homeless children and youth in 1992. The largest concentration of homeless children and youth was found in Salt Lake City (30 percent), the second largest concentration was found in Ogden (20 percent), the third largest concentration was found in Provo (14 percent), and the fourth largest number was found in St. George (13 percent). The remaining individuals were scattered in rural communities throughout Utah. School attendance data showed that 63 percent of elementary age homeless children received services from local school districts. School districts served 62 percent of the homeless middle school children and 48 percent of the high school youth. Only 25 percent of preschool (3-4 year olds) homeless children received education services, and 10 percent of homeless infants and toddlers received child care. Barriers to school attendance continued to be lack of transportation, appropriate clothing, medical care, and food. Appendixes contain data sources, the survey instrument, and definitions. (JB)
