What the grant funds

SSA solicits competition from educational, policy, or research institutions to manage the grant program and distribute the stipends to graduate students for innovative research relevant to rehabilitation, work, and the disability program. SSA management will identify suggested priority areas of interest. The SSA funded stipend will support graduate students in producing a research project, including any necessary data collection and analysis, and final evaluation report that will expand knowledge and understanding of issues of interest to SSA in the administration of their disability programs. The grant program will require that the managing organization assign an individual or team to serve as program manager to coordinate the student research projects.
