While selection of successful projects will be based on their overall merit, a priority will be placed on projects that have a robust knowledge mobilization plan. One-time research grants will range from $15,000$25,000. It is expected that in many cases this funding will be added to existing funds held by the researcher or leveraged in applying for additional funds. For researchers like Dr. Lili Liu, chair of the Department of Occupational Therapy, this type of grant is critical to reinforcing the need to recognize the ever-changing landscape of accessibility for patients, especially during their rehabilitation. Currently, there is limited research funding directed at accessibility, she says. There are even fewer, if any, that address social justice and accessibility. Access to grants such as this will make an important difference to the faculty's leadership on a national and international level for two reasons: the funding will allow researchers to address accessibility research quest
