The State of Learning Disabilities Facts, Trends, and Emerging Issues

For more than 35 years, the National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD) has provided essential information and needed resources and services to the learning disabilities community. And in response to a rapidly changing educational landscape, it has recently broadened its mission to address the needs of the more than one in five children, adolescents and adults who are impacted by learning and attention issues every day, in school, at home, in the community and in the workplace. This issue of NASET’s LD Report presents the revised and expanded 2014 edition of The State of Learning Disabilities. It reflects NCLD’s commitment to ensuring that everyone who is concerned about the well-being of individuals—with or without identified learning disabilities—has access to the most relevant and updated information.
