APA Awards
Awards Given By The American Psychological Association and It's Divisions
Congratulations to Sylvie Taylor: 2020 Recipient of the Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award
Gail McKnight Beckman created the Beckman award to benefit teachers who have inspired their former students to make a difference in their communities. The award is given to current or former academic faculty members who have inspired their former students to "create an organization which has demonstrably conferred a benefit on the community at large." Alternatively, academic faculty members must have inspired their former students to "establish on a lasting basis a concept, procedure or movement of comparable benefit to the community at large."
Dr. Taylor was nominated by her former student, Beth Ryan, who is the founder and Executive Director of Stepping Forward LA, an organization that works with youth aging out of the foster care system.
