This document presents the results of a systematic study of the impact of student legal services on correctional institutions. Legal service projects were established in three New England prisons to assess the validity of the legal problems claimed by prison inmates and to process those found to be worthwhile. What resulted was a cataloging of the types and degree of civil and criminal legal problems of prison inmates; and attempt to devise appropriate systems of delivering legal services to prisoners; and the measuring of attitudinal changes among prisoners who had legal problems and were given an opportunity to seek redress. Such a program was felt to meet day-to-day inmate legal needs, but a long-term program was considered better suited to agencies with far greater resources than a law school. (Author/HS)
