THE PARDES HUMANITARIAN PRIZE
IN MENTAL HEALTH
This international Prize recognizes a physician, scientist, public citizen
or organization whose extraordinary contribution has made a profound
impact on advancing the understanding of mental health and providing
hope and healing for people who are living with mental illness. Established
in 2014 and awarded annually, the Pardes Humanitarian Prize is named in
honor of Dr. Herbert Pardes, the first recipient of the award.

The recipient of the Prize is chosen by a distinguished international
Selection Committee from nominations solicited worldwide and receives
an honorarium. The Pardes Humanitarian Prize focuses public attention
on the burden of mental illness on individuals and society and the urgent
need to expand and enhance mental health services in the United States
and globally.

This year’s awards ceremony will honor Judge Steven Leifman. A resolute
advocate for the mentally ill, he is at the forefront of a public policy
movement in the criminal justice system to reduce the number of people
with mental illness in prison, and to develop alternative approaches that
offer treatment and support for recovery.

The ceremony will also include a special tribute to Robert and the late
Suzanne Wright who have been world leaders in autism advocacy creating
a rallying cry for research, care, education, treatment as well as national
and global awareness.
