APA Invites Nominations For McGavin Awards

APA is seeking nominations for two awards for outstanding work in child and adolescent psychiatry: the Agnes Purcell McGavin Award for Prevention and the Agnes Purcell McGavin Award for Distinguished Career Achievement in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. The awards are given to doctors who have made significant contributions to the field of child and adolescent psychiatry.

The awards are presented each year at APA’s Convocation of Fellows during the annual meeting in May.

The Agnes Purcell McGavin Award for Prevention will be selected from nominations by APA members telling how the nominee’s work has had proven success in research or policy that promoted primary prevention of mental illness among children and adolescents. Six copies of the letter and the current curriculum vitae of the nominee must be included.

Nominees for the Agnes Purcell McGavin Award for Distinguished Career Achievement in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry will have had careers that included proven success in research, publications, clinical care or policy. Nominations should include six copies of a letter from an APA member telling how the nominee’s career has contributed to American child and adolescent psychiatry and six copies of the nominee’s CV.

Nominations for either McGavin award should be sent by August 8 to Myron Belfer, M.D., Chair of the Agnes Purcell McGavin Awards Board, c/o Jane Edgerton, APA, Suite 1825, 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, Va. 22209.
