Long-Term Training Projects
Rehabilitation Psychology

These grants help colleges and universities provide scholarships to students interested in pursuing careers in rehabilitation psychology. Rehabilitation psychologists perform psychological, neuropsychological, vocational and/or clinical evaluation of persons with disabilities to determine strengths and weaknesses that may affect long term personal, social and vocational adjustment and adaptation to disability. In addition, such information may contribute to treatment, interdisciplinary planning and/or to disability determination. Counseling and psychotherapy may also be performed to assist persons to cope with disability and daily living issues.
