Justice Department plan to raise prison literacy levels
The Justice Department proposes new rules requiring all federal inmates to study until literacy reaches a 12th grade level and to complete a high school equivalency program. Currently many prisoners read at the 8th grade level, with as many as 20 percent of 58 000 inmates below that level, and the plan aims to reduce recidivism by improving job prospects after release.
