Augsburg College's Disabilities Center has a very nice list of links to websites dealing with LD/ADD issues, especially college planning issues. Here is the link:

Through that site, Carolyn, I found a link to a site that I vaguely remembered but lost the link to (or, rather, it's somewhere in my huge and unorganized AOL Favorite Places!). 

The links at the bottom of this webpage are good.  The webpage is about Asperger Syndrome.

Deja, thank you so much for that link. Isn't it fun how you click on a link that takes you to another link that finally takes you to the information you need? It is one of the joys of the internet...but also a dangerous way to loose track of time! I will keep that Asperger's link in my files for future reference as the last course in the UCLA counseling program is actually a class on college counseling for kids with special needs.
