Please publish the answer to this question about the incidence of LD in
the corrections population! I would also be interested in data (with
links and/or citations please!)  re: LD in juvenile justice system as
well. Thanks. SHH

Is anyone aware of a RECENT study related to incidence of learning 
disabilities in corrections populations?

I've found some information, but none of it very recent.
