International Association of Rehabilitation Professionals-Carolinas

Welcome to IARP-Carolinas. We invite you to join as a member and become a part of a professional organization that can enhance your ability to learn, grow and become a true expert in the field of rehabilitation.

Formerly known as NARPPS, or National Association of Rehabilitation Professionals in the Private Sector, IARP was formed in 1975 by rehabilitation professionals whose purpose was to provide support and educational programs to providers of rehabilitation services. IARP unites rehabilitation professionals across North America and beyond to promote the availability of effective, multidisciplinary services for persons with disabilities.

IARP serves a diverse membership practicing in the fields of longterm disability and disability management consulting, case management and managed care, forensics and expert testimony, life care planning, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) consulting.

IARP supports professional growth of its 2,800 members by providing an ethics code, professional competence standards, continuing education programs, networking opportunities, and group-discounted packages of professional benefits.

IARP fosters rehabilitation research and management innovation through national conferences and the publication of peer-reviewed articles in RehabPro, its quarterly journal.

IARP strives to shape public policy favorable to private-sector rehabilition by working closely with other professional associations, government, and industry.
