Description

The purpose of NIDILRR's Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP), which are funded through the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers Program, is to plan and conduct research, demonstration projects, training, and related activities, including international activities, to develop methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technology that maximize the full inclusion and integration into society, employment, independent living, family support, and economic and social self-sufficiency of individuals with disabilities, especially individuals with the most severe disabilities, and to improve the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended (Rehabilitation Act). Under this particular DRRP priority, applicants must propose a research project that is aimed at improving technology solutions to improve independence and community living outcomes of people with disabilities – with a particular emphasis on seniors with disabilities. NIDILRR plans to make three DRRP awards under this grant competition. For this grant competition we are inviting both research applications and development applications. Please note that this forecast is for a Funding Opportunity Announcement for DRRP research projects toward technology solutions to promote independence and community living outcomes of people with disabilities – with a particular emphasis on seniors with disabilities. NIDILRR's three awards under this grant competition may include research projects, development projects, or both, depending on the ranking of applications provided by the peer review panel. Successful applicants will receive up to $1,333,332 for a performance period of 36 months. Applicants must provide a detailed budget for the full 36-month performance period, plus three annual budgets – each with a maximum of $444,444.
