Funding Opportunities Available for the Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training Program

November 30, 2017

The National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) at ACL has announced several funding opportunities for the Advanced Rehabilitation Research Training (ARRT) Program.

The purpose of the ARRT program (funded through NIDILRR's Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers Program) is to provide advanced research training and experience to individuals with doctorates, or similar advanced degrees, who have clinical or other relevant experience. ARRT projects train rehabilitation researchers (including those with disabilities) with particular attention to research areas that support the implementation and objectives of the Rehabilitation Act and that improve the effectiveness of services under this law.

See below for more information about the funding opportunities:

Eligible applicants include private institutions of higher education and public- and state-controlled institutions of higher education.

Please visit the links above for more details about the grants and application process. The closing date for applications is January 16, 2018.

Within ACL, NIDILRR works to generate new knowledge and promote its effective use to improve the abilities of individuals with disabilities to perform activities of their choice in the community; and to expand society's capacity to provide full opportunities and accommodations for people with disabilities. NIDILRR conducts its work through grants that support research and development.
