Description
The Utah Education Innovation Fund, administered by Intermountain Health, is designed to support nonprofit organizations implementing innovative programs that enhance K–12 educational outcomes in Utah. The fund's current focus is on advancing reading literacy from early childhood through high school. Priority is given to projects that demonstrate new or adapted evidence-based literacy practices, foster collaboration with educators and schools, and engage families and communities. Programs should address barriers to learning, expand access to high-quality literacy experiences—particularly for at-risk students—and provide measurable outcomes that can inform broader educational improvements. Funded initiatives are expected to submit impact reports detailing student literacy growth and achievement.
