Delaware Assistive Technology Initiative

New Information Center Funded

In an effort to forge new links between consumers and its funded projects, the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research has provided support for the establishment of the National Center for the Dissemination of Disability Research (NCDDR), located in Austin, Texas.

NCDDR was funded in response to the need expressed by NIDRR-funded centers and projects for additional assistance in reaching out to consumers. NCDDR offers technical assistance to NIDRR's 280 grantees on how to find consumers and determine what the needs of those consumers are. Consumers may also contact NCDDR at 1-800-266-1832 or on the Internet at http://www.ncddr.org. Another service to consumers sponsored by NIDRR is the National Rehabilitation Information Center, NARIC, which can be accessed at http://www.cais.net/naric/
