Announcement from the Medical Rehabilitation Research Resource Network: Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility Resources

The Medical Rehabilitation Research Resource (MR3) Network has been working on the creation of a Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (DEIA) resource page for rehabilitation researchers. Please visit the DEIA page to read our statement on health disparities and to find resources, including initiatives, webinars, and additional information that may be useful to the rehabilitation research community. These pages are constantly evolving, and we welcome your input and encourage you to let us know of additional content for consideration.
