Punished for Learning Different! Learning Disabilities and Recidivism

Commish Liss

In this episode, we examine the struggles of justice engaged youth who present significant academic concerns in school. Why do so many students in the juvenile justice system possess learning disabilities? There seems to be a pattern that exists for students with learning disabilities and the juvenile justice system. Many of the students in the juvenile system are students who have dropped out of middle and high school due to a lack of appropriate supports for their learning disabilities and disengagement with curriculum materials. We have a conversation with Ron Hansen, Engineer and Juvenile Justice Commissioner to discuss these questions and so much more on Advice from the Inside Out. Special thanks to our graphic artist, Tess Buckley.
