In 2006-2008, high school dropouts were more than twice as likely to be living in poverty as high school graduates; (U.S. Census Bureau, 2009).

Seventy-four percent of dropouts spend one or more years in poverty between the ages of 25 and 75, based on analyses of data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics between 1968 and 1992; (Rank and Hirschl, 2001).
