issues change over time but may be affected
by lifestyle and directed interventions). We
would welcome well-designed research and
development projects with either (or another)
focus.
Change: None.
Comments: One commenter suggested that
community living and participation as a
domain does not sufficiently reflect the
importance of social relationships.
Discussion: We are committed to people
with disabilities being both in the
community and part of the community. We
welcome applications that design and
evaluate interventions that go beyond
physical integration to achieving social
inclusion and interpersonal relationships.
Change: None.
14. Centers of Excellence
Comments: Two commenters asked for
clarification of the expectations about the
concept of ‘‘Centers of Excellence.’’
Discussion: ‘‘Centers of National
Excellence’’ is a term that was added to the
description of RRTCs by Congress in the last
reauthorization of NIDRR. RRTCs, as Centers
of Excellence, are expected to serve as
‘‘national resource centers’’ for the topics and
populations they address. We agree with the
commenter that introduction of the new term
‘‘Centers of Excellence’’ to describe RRTCs is
unnecessarily confusing.
Change: In the RRTC criteria, we will
continue to require that RRTCs serve as
‘‘national resource centers’’ and continue to
expect excellence from them, but we will
eliminate the designation of ‘‘Centers of
Excellence.’’
15. Types of Programs Within the NIDRR
Portfolio
Comments: Two commenters indicated
that the information about the types of
programs that are administered by NIDRR is
not clear.
Discussion: NIDRR’s programs are
designated in its authorizing legislation
located in sections 200 through 205 of the
Rehabilitation Act, as amended. We manage
these programs in a manner consistent with
the authorizing statute, regulations
established in 34 CFR parts 350 through 359,
and annual appropriations bills.
Change: None.
