DLD Positions on Issues in Learning Disabilities

From time to time, the executive board of the Division for Learning Disabilities (DLD) examines current issues in learning disabilities and states DLD’s position about them. The purpose of stating the board’s positions is to inform the membership of DLD as well as the general public, including other educators and policy makers. DLD publishes those statements here where they are available for free download. DLD encourages people to disseminate them by referring others to this Web location.
