ACL's National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) is announcing two new funding opportunities for the Rehabilitation Research and Training Centers (RRTCs) program on employment of people with disabilities.
The purpose of the RRTC programs is to achieve the goals and improve the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act through well-designed research, training, technical assistance, and dissemination activities in important topic areas as specified by NIDILRR. These activities are designed to benefit rehabilitation service providers, individuals with disabilities, family members, and other stakeholders.
The RRTC on Employment Among People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (HHS-2024-ACL-NIDILRR-RTEM-0081) will conduct research, training, technical assistance, and related activities to contribute to improved employment outcomes among people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The RRTC on Employment Among Transition-Age Youth with Disabilities (HHS-2024-ACL-NIDILRR-RTEM-0082) will conduct research, training, technical assistance, and related activities to contribute to improved employment outcomes among transition-age youth with disabilities.
