Introduction
The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) knows that obtaining the information you need to help you make informed choices is not an easy thing to do because there is so much information out there. That is why the first place we recommend is our library and information center known as the National Rehabilitation Information Center (NARIC). You can think of NARIC as your "one-stop shop" for NIDRR- disability related information. The first bullet item below will tell you what NARIC can do for you.
The other Websites listed below are some of the resources that we believe might be of interest to the various constituencies we serve. Wherever possible we have attempted to direct you to national disability-related websites and databases. These resources are just suggestions and are not to be viewed as being endorsed by NIDRR or the U.S. Department of Education.
If you a question about any of the resources listed here, email NIDRR's Webmaster
