RRTC
As part of its work as a Rehabilitation Research and Training Center, under grants from the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR), the Temple University Collaborative undertakes a wide-ranging series of training and dissemination initiatives designed to provide policy makers and agency executives, practitioners and consumers, community members and others with the findings from emerging community inclusion research, through training and consultation services.
These programs are part of a broad commitment to ‘knowledge translation’ – that is, to translating the knowledge that emerges from current research in the field into practical policies, programs, and policies that support local programs as they transform their services and supports to ones that better promote full community participation for individuals with mental illnesses.
