About this opportunity
The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Community Living seeks applicants for a Rehabilitation Research and Training Center to conduct research, training, and technical assistance on evidence-based services, supports, and interventions for parents with disabilities; one grant will be made with a 60-month project period comprising five 12-month budget periods.
Eligible applicants include states, public or private agencies (including for-profit), public or private organizations (including for-profit), institutions of higher education, Indian tribes and tribal organizations, and faith-based and community organizations meeting eligibility requirements. Foreign entities are ineligible. County governments, city and township governments, tribal organizations (both federally recognized and not federally recognized), non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, for-profit organizations, small businesses, special district governments, and other entity types may compete.
The award ceiling and floor are not specified in this forecast. Continuation beyond the first 12-month budget period requires demonstrated substantial progress toward stated objectives and availability of appropriations; renewals are possible for up to five years contingent on award specifications.
The program supports disability and rehabilitation research across three outcome domains: employment, health and function, and community living and participation. Evaluation criteria include research rigor and quality, adequacy of facilities and personnel qualifications, demonstrated relevance to current rehabilitation needs, reasonable estimated government cost relative to anticipated results, organizational capacity, coordination with regional and state programs, and evidence of applicant knowledge of rehabilitation issues and related research.
This opportunity falls under CFDA 93.433, the ACL National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research. Recent awards in this program have ranged from $80 thousand to $2.775 million, with five-year centers typically exceeding $2 million. The program requires annual progress reports and maintains audit requirements for nonfederal entities expending $750,000 or more in federal awards annually.
