​Special education students in the emotional disturbance category have the worst outcomes of all disability categories. 

I wrote this paper with attorney Daniel Stewart. Together, we explored some of the reasons for these poor outcomes, from both a legal and psychiatric standpoint. We identified a number of issues related to policy choices, programmatic decisions, and results surrounding children eligible for special education. 

Please read our article, "Emotional/Behavioral Disorders and Special Education: Recommendations for System Redesign of a Failed Category," for our detailed findings and recommendations regarding the ED category..
