Dear Colleagues, Please go to the link below for an excellent December 2014 report by USDOE and USDOJ entitled "Guiding Principles for Providing High Quality Education in Juvenile Justice Secure Facilities" http://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/correctional-education/guiding-principles.pdf Please also find attached a very brief and beautiful article on education in detention: Education for Liberation, by Professor James Forman, Jr. (2008, Harvard Law Review). It's an older article but absolutely worth the 10 minutes it takes to read if you work with any students who are detained. Thank you, Alexandra Dufresne Staff Attorney Center for Children's Advocacy 65 Elizabeth Street Hartford, CT 06105 (203) 530-6316 (cell: best number) www.kidscounsel.org
