NARIC maintains information regarding the current and previously funded projects of the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR). We do not have information on when grants will be announced, application packages, previously submitted grant proposals, or upcoming awards. However, we have the abstracts and outputs, including publications and products, of funded projects. You can explore them by NIDILRR programs or outcomes, or search the NIDILRR Program database. For the latest events, resources, and results from the NIDILRR grantee community, subscribe and follow us for more.
