Purpose of Program:
The purpose of the FI Projects program is to develop methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technology that maximize the full inclusion and integration into society, employment, independent living, family support, and economic and social self-sufficiency of individuals with disabilities, especially individuals with the most severe disabilities.

Another purpose of the FI Projects program is to improve the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.

NIDRR makes two types of awards under the FI Projects program:
Research grants (CFDA 8 4. 133G-1) and development grants (CFDA 8 4. 133G-2).

In carrying out a research activity under an FI research grant, a grantee must identify one or more hypotheses or research questions and, based on the hypotheses or research questions identified, perform an intensive, systematic study directed toward producing (1) new scientific knowledge, or (2) better understanding of the subject, problem studied, or body of knowledge.

In carrying out a development activity under an FI project development grant, a grantee must use knowledge and understanding gained from research to create materials, devices, systems, or methods, including designing and developing prototypes and processes, that are beneficial to the target population.

Target population means the group of individuals, organizations, or other entities expected to be affected by the project.

There may be more than one target population because a project may affect those who receive services, provide services, or administer services.

Note:
Different selection criteria are used for FI projects research grants (8 4. 133G-1) and development grants (8 4. 133G-2).

Applicants must clearly indicate in the application whether they are applying for a research grant (8 4. 133G-1) or a development grant (8 4. 133G-2) and must address the selection criteria relevant for their grant type.

Without exception, NIDRR will review each application based on the designation (i.e., research (8 4. 133G-1) or development (8 4. 133G-2)) made by the applicant.

Applications will be determined ineligible and will not be reviewed if they do not include a clear designation of research or development.
