Call for nominations for SPP faculty awards


Review the new selection of SPP faculty awards and nominate a deserving colleague.

By Tonya M. Palermo

The SPP Awards Committee invites you to nominate a colleague for one of our five faculty awards. Several awards have been revised to honor pediatric psychologists who have made significant contributions to the field. A new clinical practice award is also being introduced during this awards cycle. Please see the Div. 54 awards page for complete nomination instructions. Faculty award winners will be invited to present brief award addresses at the Society of Pediatric Psychology Annual Conference in the spring following the nomination. Partial travel support will be provided by SPP. Nominations are due by Dec. 1, 2013.
