Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP) Program: Community Living and Participation (Development)

archived

Under this particular DRRP priority, applicants must propose a research project that is aimed at improving community living and participation outcomes among people with disabilities. In carrying out a development project under this program, a grantee must use knowledge and understanding gained from research to create materials, devices, systems, methods, measures, techniques, tools, prototypes, processes, or intervention protocols that are beneficial to the target population. Please note that this is the funding opportunity for field-initiated DRRP development projects in the community living and participation domain. We are inviting field-initiated DRRP research projects under a separate funding opportunity. NIDILRR plans to make two field-initiated DRRP awards in the community living and participation domain. These two awards may be (1) both research projects, (2) both development projects, or (3) a research project and a development project, depending on the ranking of applications provided by the peer review panel. These awards will have a 60 month project period, with five 12-month budget periods.
