We are proud to announce that Executive Director John A. Morris was honored as the co-recipient of the Blanche F. Ittleson Award for 2013. The American Orthopsychiatric Association’s oldest, largest and most prestigious award is given for outstanding achievement in the delivery of children’s services and the promotion of children’s mental health.
John was honored for his career contributions to the development of a humane and responsive mental health system — contributions that have come as a state mental health administrator and a national leader among both mental health professionals and mental health advocates.
