ACL's National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) is announcing a new funding opportunity for the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP) program.
The purpose of the DRRP program is to achieve the goals, and improve the effectiveness, of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act by generating new knowledge or developing methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technologies that advance a wide range of health and function, community living, and employment outcomes among people with disabilities, especially people with disabilities who have the greatest support needs.
Under the DRRP on Projects for Translating the Findings and Products of Disability and Rehabilitation Research and Development into Practice, grantees must engage in knowledge translation activities to promote the use or adoption of findings or products from NIDILRR-sponsored research or development projects.
NIDILRR plans to make five grants under this opportunity in FY2025. Each grant will have a 60-month project period with five 12-month budget periods.
Contact linda.vo@acl.hhs.gov at NIDILRR if you have questions about this funding opportunity.
