AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION (APA) SEEKING NOMINEES FOR JOURNALISM AWARDS -- $1,000 HONORARIUM
APA recognizes excellence in media coverage of mental illness and psychiatric treatment by journalists, editors, newspapers, producers, radio and television programs with two annual awards. Examples of outstanding work in print and broadcast journalism may be submitted by the journalists themselves, colleagues, or professional organizations. The entries are judged separately in the categories of print and broadcast. Winners will receive $1,000 and a plaque from the APA. If an award is presented to both a radio and television nominee in the broadcast category, the prize will be evenly divided into two $500 awards. Please submit entries to the APA Department of Public Affairs, 1400 K Street, NW, Washington, DC 20005. Please contact Erin Murphy with questions (202) 684-6324.
