Apply for a Switzer Research Fellowship

ACL's National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) is announcing new funding opportunities for the Switzer Research Fellowships Program (https://acl.gov/programs/research-and-development/switzer-research-fello...).

The purpose of the Switzer Research Fellowships Program is to build research capacity by providing support to highly qualified individuals, including individuals with disabilities, to conduct research on rehabilitation, independent living, and other experiences and outcomes of people with disabilities.

Fellows must conduct original research that is focused on the experiences and outcomes of people with disabilities in one or more of NIDILRR’s three outcome domains: 

--Community living and participation
--Employment
--Health and function

NIDILRR plans to make six fellowship awards under this opportunity. Fellowship awards will have one 12-month project period.

Contact linda.vo@acl.hhs.gov at NIDILRR if you have questions about the Switzer Program.
