Help Shape the NIH Strategic Plan for Disability Research

NIH is in the initial stage of developing an agency-wide NIH Strategic Plan for Disability Research. This strategic plan will identify scientific themes and develop operational goals and objectives to advance research activities that promote the health and well-being of people with disabilities. Central to the strategic planning process is robust and meaningful community engagement to obtain a diverse range of input that will help inform the plan.

We invite members of disability communities, including people with lived experience of disability, researchers, clinicians, advocacy organizations, and professional associations, to participate in the strategic planning process. NIH is holding a series of community engagement events over the next two months to better identify and understand disability communities’ health and research concerns and unique needs and preferences. Interested individuals are welcome to observe any of the Community Roundtables, join in on the Town Hall, and/or submit their input via a forthcoming Request for Information (RFI).
