AGLP Awards
The John E Fryer, MD, Award honors an individual whose work has contributed to the mental health of sexual minorities. It was named for John Fryer, the psychiatrist who appeared as “Dr. H. Anonymous” at the 1972 APA meeting and helped move forward the process of removing the diagnosis of homosexuality from the DSM. The Award was funded by AGLP members, a matching grant from the Gill Foundation, and a bequest from AGLP founding member Frank Rundle, MD. The Fryer Award is given at the APA Annual or Fall meeting, and includes an honorarium and a lecture at the APA meeting.
The following AGLP awards are presented at the AGLP Annual Meeting in May of each year
The Stuart Nichols Awardis presented to a community service organization in the Annual Meeting city that supports LGBT Mental Health. It was named after Stuart Nichols, MD, a community psychiatrist who did addictions and HIV work and was a mentor to many AGLP members, and includes a cash award.
The James Paulsen Award is presented to an AGLP member who has made significant contributions to the ongoing life of the organization. It was named after a founding AGLP member.
The Distinguished Service Award, AGLP’s first designated award, is given to an individual for outstanding contributions to the LGBT community. Over the years it has been awarded to AGLP members whose work extends past the reach of the organization, to supportive APA officials, and to public figures.
The Barbara Gittings Award is presented to a woman who demonstrates exceptional leadership and advocacy for lesbian Issues. It was named after one of the founders of the gay rights movement and one of the activists instrumental in moving APA to consider depathologizing homosexuality.
The Journal of Gay and Lesbian Mental Health (JGLMH) Outstanding Resident Paper Award for an outstanding paper written for publication by a psychiatry resident or other trainee. This award was supported in its first year by a generous grant by the William A Kerr Foundation, and includes a cash award, publication in JGLMH, and presentation of the paper at the AGLP meeting.
