Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Rehabilitation Training: Rehabilitation Long Term Training - Rehabilitation Psychology" (CFDA 84.129J), is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Education through the Rehabilitation Services Administration. The program is designed to address workforce needs in the rehabilitation field by supporting long-term training efforts in areas where there are documented personnel shortages, as determined by the Secretary of Education. In practical terms, the funding is meant to help expand and strengthen the pipeline of qualified rehabilitation professionals, including rehabilitation psychologists, by underwriting structured training projects that lead to recognized credentials.
The purpose of the Rehabilitation Long Term Training program is threefold. First, it provides financial assistance for projects that offer basic or advanced training leading to an academic degree in rehabilitation shortage areas. Second, it supports projects that deliver a defined sequence of courses or a formal program of study that culminates in a certificate (rather than a full degree), again focused on identified shortage areas. Third, it can provide support for medical residents who are enrolled in residency programs in the specialty of physical medicine and rehabilitation. For the 84.129J competition specifically, the focus is on rehabilitation psychology as a specialty area within this larger long-term training framework.
Eligibility is broad and includes states as well as public or nonprofit agencies and organizations, including institutions of higher education and Indian Tribes. The opportunity listing also indicates eligibility across a wide range of applicant types, such as public and state-controlled universities, private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and certain non-501(c)(3) nonprofits), and various units of government (state, county, city/township, special district), as well as public housing authorities and tribal governments and organizations. Applicants should still rely on the official Federal Register notice for the definitive eligibility rules and any competition-specific requirements or preferences.
Funding for this competition was relatively small and targeted. The estimated total funding amount is $200,000, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an expectation of making approximately 2 awards. The opportunity includes a cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants should be prepared to document non-federal contributions consistent with the terms laid out in the official notice. Because matching requirements can vary in how they are calculated and what kinds of contributions qualify, applicants would need to review the Federal Register notice carefully for the exact percentage, allowable sources, and documentation expectations.
The timeline for the FY 2010 competition shows that applications were made available on April 23, 2010, and the deadline for transmittal of applications was June 7, 2010, with the opportunity later archived on July 7, 2010. Applications for this and related Rehabilitation Long Term Training competitions (including CFDA numbers 84.129 B, C, E, F, H, J, P, Q, R, and W) had to be submitted electronically through the Department of Education's e-Application system via the e-Grants website (http://e-grants.ed.gov). The notice explicitly states that applicants could not submit an application by emailing an electronic copy; submission had to occur through the designated electronic system, where application data would be entered online and stored in a database.
The listing repeatedly emphasizes that the grant synopsis is not a substitute for the official Federal Register application notice. Critical details such as priorities, performance measures, pre-application requirements (if any), application formatting and submission instructions, selection criteria, and program contact information are governed by the Federal Register notice. For applicants who needed help accessing the full announcement, a systems contact (Julius Cotton) is provided, and the program manager for the competition is Traci DiMartini at the Rehabilitation Services Administration within the U.S. Department of Education, with phone numbers and an email contact included for technical and program-related questions.
