The mission of the Rehabilitation Research and Training Center on Disability Statistics and Demographics (StatsRRTC) is to narrow and actively bridge the divide between the producers and end users of disability statistics, thereby supporting better data collection, more accurate information, better decision-making, more effective programs, and better lives for people with disabilities.
Mathematica supported the University of New Hampshire and other partner agencies with eight research studies over five years. In addition, we provided support on various knowledge translation and dissemination tasks.
