Seventeen of the 50 States providing correctional education services to juveniles were randomly selected for the survey. Florida and Indiana were not able to provide complete data in time for publication. The 15 remaining States provided data on the number of handicapped students served, the number and types of teachers and psychologists for these students, the types of correctional education programs offered, and the types of special education services available in juvenile correctional facilities. Changes in the numbers of handicapped students from the 1984 to the 1985 surveys show an increase in the percentage served in 7 of the 11 States providing data for both years. The percentage of certified teachers in the total number of correctional educators increased 6 percent from 1984 to 1985. The overall ratio of handicapped juvenile offenders to special education teachers was 17 to 1. The three types of special education programs reported are self-contained special education classes, resource classrooms, and mainstream classrooms. Although the quality and quantity of special education programming for handicapped juvenile offenders has increased in recent years, the range of programming education across States indicates that effective education for such offenders has not been uniformly realized in the States. 3 tables and 8 references.
