Major Caraveo National Service Award

Army psychologist Maj. L. Eduardo Caraveo, PhD, dedicated his life to helping people for whom mental health care is often out of reach, but that life that was cut tragically short on Nov. 5, 2009, when he was among those shot by an Army psychiatrist at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas.

To honor Caraveo, Div. 55 (Society for Prescribing Psychology) has created an annual award in his honor. The Major Caraveo National Service Award recognizes a medical or prescribing psychologist who strives to help underserved populations, as Caraveo did throughout his career.

The award carries a $500 stipend.

Please submit nominations, including papers, letters of nomination, and other attestation to Div. 55 Awards Coordinator Sean Evers, PhD, in electronic format only.
