rehabilitation research between the US and other countries.  

Primary Objectives:

the Office of Special and Rehabilitation Services (OSERS), to establish an
international component within domestic conferences by involving eminent
colleagues from other countries.  

3. Facilitate international exchanges of rehabilitation research experts
between research centers in other countries and OSERS funded projects in the
US by providing airfare.  

4. Disseminate information to rehabilitation service providers on cultural
issues to meet the needs of foreign-born persons in the US, with a focus on
recent immigrants.
