- W2298151691 abstract "In 1983 a Request for Proposals (RFP) from the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) in Washington DC, caught the attention of Dean Terence A. Rogers (1972–1988) at the John A Burns School of Medicine (JABSOM) at the University of Hawai‘i. NIDRR is housed under the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services of the US Department of Education. The project was to be co-directed by Dr. Gary Okamoto, a physiatrist at the Rehabilitation Hospital of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, and Dr. Satoru Izutsu, a licensed psychologist and a registered occupational therapist at JABSOM.The application process was successful, and the Pacific Basin Rehabilitation Research and Training Center (PBRRTC) was established in 1984. The focus was primarily on Micronesia, although other territories and islands were included. The RFP was a 10-year Federal grant to work with persons with all types of disabilities post-discharge from the Rehabilitation Hospital of the Pacific. The goal was to provide a bridge for physical and vocational rehabilitation. In addition, JABSOM sought to promote a residency program in physiatry at the Rehabilitation Hospital of the Pacific.In time PBRRTC relocated to an office on Young Street in Honolulu, and the grant ended. It looked as though PBRRTC might close its doors. The Director at the time, Dr. Dan Anderson, began submitting small proposals for grants in Hawai‘i, and the PBRRTC began to take on the form it has today.Thirty years after its establishment, PBRRTC continues to advocate for persons of all ages who have all types of disabilities. While PBRRTC's mission remains the same, many changes have taken place. In 2013 the Center moved to the Gold Bond Building, near the John A. Burns School of Medicine. A new website was launched in January 2014 (jabsom.hawaii.edu/pbrrtc). A monthly electronic newsletter, which began in October 2013, provides information on topics related to PBRRTC's projects to a broad audience. Past editions of the newsletter (which may be accessed from the website, where one can also sign up to receive the newsletter) included information on World Stroke Day, National Heart Month, National Mentoring Month, and Brain Injury Awareness Month; building designs that work for persons who are deaf or hard-of-hearing; depression as the second most common cause of disability worldwide; veterans and traumatic brain injuries; products designed for those with sight loss so they may live independently; and how strokes are affecting young people.Currently PBRRTC is a part of the Research Corporation of the University of Hawai‘i (RCUH). It continues to assist agencies and organizations that lack the expertise and/or personnel to accomplish their goals and tasks. Increasingly, PBRRTC's projects involve the use of technology. Most of PBRRTC's current projects are one-year contracts with the possibility of renewal. Sustainability remains a challenge for PBRRTC." @default.
