Health and Human Services Department, Community Living Administration
The Administration for Community Living (ACL) is proud to announce the Paralysis Resource Center (PRC) is moving to ACL as a result of the 2014 budget recently signed by President Obama. ACL was formed in April 2012 to advance policy and implement programs that support the rights of older Americans and people with disabilities to live in their communities throughout their lifespan. The mission of the PRC aligns perfectly with ACL's mission and provides the Administration with important new programmatic opportunities to help persons with physical disabilities as well as older adults and people with developmental disabilities. The PRC provides a comprehensive, national source of information for people living with paralysis and their families to promote health, foster involvement in the community, and improve quality of life. Resources on spinal cord injury, paralysis and mobility-related disabilities, including information and referral by phone and email are available in English and Spanish. The PRC currently operates through a cooperative agreement between the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). ACL will be working with the CDC on transitioning the program to ACL. Program Name: Paralysis Resource Center. Award Amount: Up to $6,683,000. Project Period: 6/1/2014 to 5/31/2015.
