CORRECTION
The print version of the Nov. 30 article, “Legal Literacy’s Impact on Access to Justice” included a typo that resulted in misgendering Alexi Freeman.
The print version of the same article also incorrectly stated that the Annenberg Public Policy Center was located at Penn State. We apologize for the errors.
