Mental Health America 2007 Media Awards

Each June at its Annual Meeting, Mental Health America honors media professionals and student journalists who excel in their reporting and portrayal of mental health issues. Awards are given for news and feature stories, on national, state, local and student levels, and in print and broadcast media. Details, entry forms and a full list of 2006 winners are available at www.mentalhealthamerica.net/go/media-awards. The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2007.

Entries are judged by a committee of peers selected by Mental Health America for their knowledge of mental health issues, demonstrated excellence in reporting and editorial experience. Members of last year’s awards judging committee represent such reputable media outlets as Congressional Quarterly, Nation’s Health, United Press International and Voice of America.

Mental Health America will notify winners by the first week in May and will honor those winners at the Media Awards luncheon on Friday, June 8, 2007, during the Mental Health America 2007 Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C.
