The ICDR Seeks Comments
at Public Meeting
The Interagency Committee on Disability Research (ICDR),
authorized by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, is holding
a meeting to seek comments from the public with respect to the federal disability
and rehabilitation research agenda. This dialogue with the public is of critical
importance, and we are encouraging individuals with disabilities, persons who
represent service providers, service provider organizations, disability and
rehabilitation research and policy groups, and representatives of advocacy organizations
with specialized knowledge and experience to suggest specific ways to improve
future research for individuals with disabilities. The ICDR is also interested
in hearing from individuals concerning how well the existing federal research
programs are responding to the changing needs of individuals with disabilities.
Within the context of this approach, the ICDR is also asking for input on the
continuum of care for wounded, injured or ill military service members.
The meeting will take place Aug. 14, 2007, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Holiday Inn on The Hill, 415 New Jersey Ave. N.W., Washington, DC 20001. The telephone number for the hotel is 202-638-1616.
