Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2021 ACL NIDILRR SFGE 0010
The Switzer Research Fellowships Program is a discretionary federal grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Administration for Community Living (ACL), specifically under NIDILRR. Its central aim is to strengthen national research capacity in disability and rehabilitation by investing directly in highly qualified individual researchers, including researchers who themselves have disabilities. Through this program, selected fellows receive support to carry out original research focused on improving rehabilitation outcomes and the broader lives of people with disabilities.
The research supported under this fellowship must align with the authorities described in Section 204 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. In practical terms, that means the fellowship is designed to advance research and related activities that lead to usable, real-world improvements in rehabilitation methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technology. The program emphasizes work that has practical applications and that helps maximize full inclusion and integration of individuals with disabilities across major life domains. These domains include participation in society, employment, independent living, health and wellness, family support, and economic and social self-sufficiency. A notable priority embedded in the authorizing language is attention to individuals with the most significant disabilities, along with an overall focus on improving the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act.
This opportunity is offered as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) within the federal activity category of Science and Technology and other Research and Development, and it is listed under CFDA number 93.433. Eligibility is limited to individuals rather than institutions, which is a key distinguishing feature compared with many other federal research competitions that primarily fund universities or organizations. The funding opportunity number for the referenced notice is HHS-2021-ACL-NIDILRR-SFGE-0010, and it was created on October 20, 2020, with an original application closing date of December 19, 2020.
In terms of scale, the program anticipated making about 6 awards, with an award ceiling of $80,000 per award. Overall, the fellowship is positioned as a targeted investment in emerging or advancing researchers whose work can contribute directly to better rehabilitation knowledge, improved service effectiveness, and tangible gains in inclusion, independence, and quality of life for people with disabilities.Apply for HHS 2021 ACL NIDILRR SFGE 0010
