LEARNING DISABILITIES IN PRISONS: IMPLICATIONS FOR RE-EDUCATION AND REHABILITATION OF THE INMATES
Abstract
The association between learning disabilities (LD) and incarceration has garnered increasing attention in recent years. Individuals with LD face unique challenges within the criminal justice system, ranging from disproportionate representation in prison populations to difficulties accessing appropriate support and rehabilitation services. This paper provides a comprehensive review of existing literature on the intersection of learning disabilities and incarceration, examining factors contributing to the overrepresentation of individuals with LD in the criminal justice system, as well as the implications for rehabilitation and policy. By synthesizing current research findings, this paper aims to inform future interventions and policies aimed at addressing the needs of this vulnerable population
