> Federal Disability Research: Call for Input
>
> Dear Colleagues and Friends, On behalf of the Interagency
> Committee on Disability Research (ICDR), I invite you to
> participate in the "Stakeholder Meetings" that will take
> place on Tuesday, August 5, 2008, and Wednesday, August 13,
> 2008. You can participate in person, by telephone or via
> Webcast, offering you multiple avenues to provide input to
> the federal disability research agenda.
>
> The purpose of this event is to allow individuals with
> disabilities and their representatives (family members,
> organizations, service providers, disability and
> rehabilitation research and policy groups, advocacy
> organizations with specialized disability knowledge) the
> opportunity to suggest specific ways to improve future
> disability and rehabilitation research to benefit individuals
> with disabilities. We are also interested in hearing from
> individuals concerning how well the existing federal research
> programs are responding to the changing needs of individuals
> with disabilities. These comments can cover a wide range of
> research areas, including, but not limited to:
>
> * Employment of people with disabilities
>
> * Community integration and continuum of care
>
> * Health disparities
>
> * Access to assistive technology and universal design
>
> * Transition of youth to employment and independent living
>
> * Availability of accessible housing, transportation and
> recreation
>
> A panel of ICDR members will hear the testimony during four
> separate meetings on the two days listed above at the
> Doubletree Hotel in Arlington, VA. For those who are unable
> to testify in person, testimony may be given by phone or in
> writing. (Written testimony will be read as time permits.)
> The meeting will also be Webcast and interested parties can
> observe the proceedings live via an IP Web site.
>
> Our goal is to identify and draft recommendations to improve
> federal disability and rehabilitation research. Therefore,
> your participation is critical to meeting this goal. If you
> are unable to attend or provide testimony, please pass this
> on to someone who you believe is interested in
> participating. We anticipate that this meeting will result
> in new and
> better recommendations for the federal disability research agenda.
>
> To register to attend and/or provide testimony, we have
