Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2023 ACL NIDILRR DPBU 0000

This funding opportunity is a discretionary research grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Administration for Community Living (ACL), through the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR). It falls under the Disability and Rehabilitation Research Projects (DRRP) program, which supports research and related activities intended to strengthen disability and rehabilitation knowledge and practice. In broad terms, the DRRP program is designed to generate and share evidence, tools, methods, procedures, and rehabilitation technologies that help people with disabilities, especially those with the greatest support needs, achieve fuller inclusion in society. The program also emphasizes outcomes tied to employment, independent living, family and caregiver support, and greater economic and social self-sufficiency, while improving the effectiveness of services authorized under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended.

This specific DRRP competition focuses on the Burn Model Systems (BMS) National Data and Statistical Center. The central purpose is to maintain the Burn Model Systems National Database, a national resource that consolidates data contributed by Burn Model Systems Centers. Alongside database stewardship, the awardee is expected to provide training, technical assistance, and ongoing support to those Centers to ensure consistent, high-quality data collection and submission. In practice, that means the funded project functions as the data backbone for the Burn Model Systems network: keeping the database operational and secure, sustaining data standards and documentation, assisting sites with data-entry procedures and quality control, and helping resolve reporting issues so the national dataset remains reliable for research and program improvement.

NIDILRR indicated it planned to make a single award under this opportunity in fiscal year 2023, meaning this is a one-recipient national center-style award rather than a multi-award research portfolio. The project period is 60 months total, structured as five separate 12-month budget periods, which typically implies annual continuation decisions based on progress and compliance. The posted maximum annual funding level (award ceiling) is $425,000, and the opportunity is listed under Assistance Listing (CFDA) number 93.433, within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category.

Eligibility is broad and includes many organization types: state, county, and city/township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses); small businesses; and other applicants as described in the notice. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by the deadline specified in the announcement (original closing date March 13, 2023, by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time).

Overall, the grant is aimed at sustaining a national burn injury rehabilitation data infrastructure and ensuring the participating Burn Model Systems Centers can contribute standardized, high-value information. By keeping the national database functioning and supporting consistent data contributions, the project is intended to enable better research, stronger evidence for rehabilitation services, and improved long-term outcomes and participation for individuals affected by burn injuries and related disabilities.
