Space adjuster Section divider

The Committee on Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Concerns (CLGBC) of the American Psychological Association annually presents one or two Outstanding Achievement Awards to recognize psychologists for significant contributions to the mission of CLGBC. This mission is to

  • study and evaluate on an ongoing basis how the issues and concerns of lesbian, gay male, and bisexual psychologists can best be dealt with;


  • encourage objective and unbiased research in areas relevant to lesbian, gay male, and bisexual adults and youths, and the social impact of such research;


  • examine the consequences of stereotypes about lesbian, gay male, and bisexual adults and youths in clinical practice;

  • develop educational materials for distribution to psychologists and others; and


  • make recommendations regarding the integration of these issues into the APA's activities to further the cause of the civil and legal rights of lesbian, gay, and bisexual psychologists within the profession. (APA Association Rule 150-4).
Nominees may have made significant contributions to CLGBC's mission either through direct CLGBC service or through independent work. The contributions may be of a scientific, professional, educational, leadership, or political nature.

All nominations should include:
  • a letter of nomination including a brief description of the specific achievements and contributions of the nominee (500 word maximum),


  • a current curriculum vitae, and


  • the names of three people who have been asked by the nominator to write reference letters.
No current members of CLGBC or staff of the Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual Concerns Program at the time of the award are eligible for consideration.

The deadline for receipt of nominations is May 1, 2007.

Send nominations and supporting materials by mail to CLGBC Awards, Public Interest Directorate, American Psychological Association, 750 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20002-4242, or email to lgbc@apa.org.
