Gary Upham
Maine State Prison Principal

I have been the Principal of the Maine State Prison for the past year
and a half.  It has not taken me long to identify that much of this
population has special education needs.  However I have tried,
unsuccessfully, to pull in resources appropriate for identification and
strategies to work with my inmates.  Funding is a major issue as well as
current staffing, which is affected by funding.  How do I deal with a
major need under these conditions?
