We have been preparing for motivated, energized, risk taking collaborators who represent minority entities and Indian tribes, such as yourself to become involved in the Capacity Building Success project!

San Diego State University's Capacity Building Success recognizes the urgent need to more effectively serve individuals with disabilities from underrepresented and underserved groups. Our main purpose is to promote and enhance the participation of minority entities and Indian tribes in Rehabilitation Services Administration and National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research funded activities.

Training Eligibility Requirements:

(Dept. of Education - OSERS, CFDA #84.315, March 1999, p. A1).
