The Exemplary Psychiatrist Awards program allows NAMI members, NAMI State Organizations and NAMI Affiliates in every state, city and community throughout the country to honor publicly the exceptional contributions that many psychiatrists make to improve the lives of people living with mental illness. All of the nominations are submitted through a NAMI State Organization or NAMI Affiliate office.
The Exemplary Psychiatrist Awards program was established in 1992, and since that time, more than 1,000 awards have been presented. Many psychiatrists have described this award as one of the most important honors that they can receive because it comes from the people who need their help the most- people whose lives are affected by mental illness.
The criteria for these awards recognize psychiatrists who have gone the extra mile with NAMI members and have made substantial contributions to NAMI Affiliate or NAMI State Organization activities. For more information about NAMI's Exemplary Psychiatrist Awards program, contact Liz Smith at (703) 774-7215 or e-mail: lsmith@nami.org.
