The purpose of the DRRPs is to achieve the goals of, 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 this particular DRRP priority, 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 six grants under this opportunity in FY 2023. Each grant will have a 60-month project period, with five 12-month budget periods.
