All nominations and applications are submitted online. The deadline for submitting applications for the AAMFT and the AAMFT Research & Education Foundation awards will be December 15, 2019. Please contact the Awards Committee at awards@aamft.org for any questions.

1. Those receiving the Excellence in Media award.

2. At least one author of the Outstanding Research Publication award must be a member.

Note: The AAMFT Annual Conference registration fee will be waived for all award recipients. In order to avoid the perception of a conflict of interest, anyone who is on the AAMFT, the AAMFT Foundation, or AAMFT sponsored payroll is ineligible to be considered for an award so long as that financial relationship exists. All award recipients must be members of AAMFT with the exception of those receiving the Excellence in Media award, and at least one author of the Outstanding Research Publication award must be a member.
