This application builds upon the strong record of research programs of the University of Minnesota’s Research and Training Center on Community Living and Participation, Research and Training Center on Home and Community Based Outcome Measurement, Institute on Community Integration and Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities programs to offer a post-doctoral training program that is rich in research training and experience as well as knowledge of translation opportunities focused on community living and participation of persons disabilities. ARRT/CLP will offer its post-doctoral participants unique opportunities to join active interdisciplinary research teams that are nationally known for their productivity and impact on the state-of-knowledge and state-of-practice in community living and participation for people with disabilities. Participants will be matched with faculty mentors with shared topical and methods interests to guide their learning experience. Training opportunities will include seminars, coursework and direct hands-on training in a wide range of topics of direct relevance to future career development, including observational and survey research methods and programs, latest approaches to primary and secondary data analysis, policy analysis, program evaluation and measurement development. Participants will be supported to author research focused grants, peer-reviewed journal articles and targeted translational materials to non-technical audiences and to identify how their research will influence policy and practice. ICI will augment the NIDILRR program with a cost match of 50% of the participant salary, enabling us to use NIDILRR resources to train two post-doctoral researchers each year. During the 5 years of the proposed project we will provide post-doctoral training to approximately 5-7 post-doctoral fellows (depending on the start date, and 1 or 2-year appointment status).
