ACL's National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) is announcing a new funding opportunity for the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP) program.

The purpose of the DRRP program is to plan and conduct research, demonstration projects, trainings, 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.

Under the DRRP on Enhancing the Accessibility of Air Travel, applicants must propose to (1) conduct research on the air travel experiences and outcomes of people with disabilities; (2) conduct research on practices, policies, and systems that shape air travel experiences and outcomes among people with disabilities; and (3) conduct knowledge translation activities to promote air travel accessibility and positive air travel experiences and outcomes among people with disabilities.

NIDILRR, part of ACL, generates new knowledge and promotes its effective use so that people with disabilities can perform activities of their choice in the community. NIDILRR also works to expand society's capacity to provide full opportunities and accommodations for people with disabilities.
