Presenter Information

The Administration for Community Living’s (ACL) National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR) is sponsoring virtual match-making sessions for ACL/NIDILRR stakeholders to connect with each other, share information, discuss common research interests, and ultimately find partners for research collaboration.

ACL/NIDILRR is looking for presenters for the sessions. Presenters are stakeholders who are seeking partnership and collaboration for research purposes or have a research question or a specific research topic idea and want to make a pitch to the researchers. During each session, presenters are asked to briefly share information about their organization, their research interest, and pose questions to matched stakeholders.

If you are interested in presenting and being matched with stakeholders with similar interest to potentially partner with, please respond to this brief survey no later than Wednesday, February 11, 2026.

Please note that ACL/NIDILRR is sponsoring the sessions but will not participate in them to maintain integrity in future grant processes, such as peer review, and does not endorse any content discussed.
