Description: The purpose of NIDILRR&#8217;s DRRPs, which are funded through the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers Program, is to improve the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act by developing methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technologies that advance a wide range of independent living and employment outcomes for individuals with disabilities, especially individuals with the most significant disabilities. The intended outcome of this particular DRRP is to generate new knowledge about effective policies, practices, services or interventions for addressing the needs of parents with disabilities and their families. The DRRP must contribute to this outcome by conducting research to identify or develop promising practices for serving and supporting parents with disabilities in the community, and by testing the effectiveness of at least one of these practices or interventions. The DRRP must also collect and/or analyze existing data to provide national estimates of the prevalence of parenting with a disability in the United States.
