NIDRR Notice of final priorities for DRRP and RRTC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We published a notice of proposed priorities (NPP) for NIDRR's Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects and Centers Program in the Federal Register on April 22, 2008 (73 FR 21607). The NPP included background statements that described our rationale for the three priorities proposed in that notice. There are differences between the NPP and this notice of final priorities (NFP) as discussed in the following section. In this notice, we are announcing one priority for a DRRP and one priority for an RRTC. For the DRRP, the final priority is: Priority 1--Centers on Research and Capacity Building To Improve Outcomes for Individuals With Disabilities From Traditionally Underserved Racial and Ethnic Populations. For the RRTC, the final priority is: Priority 2--Individuals With Disabilities Living in Rural Areas. Note: NIDRR intends to publish a separate notice of final priority for the Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center (RERC) on Technologies for Successful Aging with Disability that was proposed in the NPP.
