The Awards for Distinguished Contributions to Psychology in the Public Interest recognize persons who have advanced psychology as a science and/or profession by a single extraordinary achievement or a lifetime of outstanding contributions in the public interest. Two awards are given: one to a senior psychologist and a second to a psychologist who has made a significant contribution to the public interest in the early stages of his or her career. The 2020 recipients of the APA Awards for Distinguished Contributions in the Public Interest were selected by the 2019 Committee on Psychology in the Public Interest Awards. Valerie A. Earnshaw is recognized for her innovative research on stigma and health inequities, as well as remarkable national and international contributions to advancing theoretical perspectives for understanding how stigma affects health inequities across the life span, particularly in the context of HIV/AIDS and substance use disorders. With this award, the APA recognizes Earnshaw as an emerging leader in the field of stigma intervention research and honors her commitment to addressing multiple forms of stigma, work that is essential for improving the health and well-being of communities most impacted by health inequities globally.
