Out of the Shadows: Women with learning disabilities in contact with or on the edges of the criminal justice system

Published by the Prison Reform Trust and produced in collaboration with KeyRing Living Support Networks, Out of the Shadows draws on the experiences of 24 women with learning disabilities in contact with, or on the edges of, the criminal justice system; and practitioners working within criminal justice, social care, and women’s services. Abuse by men lay behind the offending behaviour of most of the participating women.
