Hello Rev. Tsivanyo —
Thank you for your interest in NARIC and NIDRR!
NARIC is not a granting agency, we are only a library and information center. We collect information about projects funded by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR). NIDRR grants are made to institutions, universities, and organizations for research, development, and training in disability and rehabilitation. They are not made solely to provide services to people with disabilities, but to develop new treatment modalities in physical, medical, vocational, and mental health rehabilitation. NIDRR grants are focused on institutions and organizations in the United States.
The Center for International Rehabilitation Research Information and Exchange has a searchable database of international organizations which may be of assistance to you. You can search it at http://cirrie.buffalo.edu/directory/index.php
Good luck to you and your organization!
