Citation"For a lifetime of distinguished and celebrated contributions to the practice of psychology. Jack G. Wiggins Jr. has made a career in pioneering the elimination of inequities and deficiencies in the health care system. He won greater access to needed mental health care by securing reimbursement for psychological treatments, thus allowing development of community-based psychological therapies and creating new practice opportunities, especially for women and minorities. Through his expert mentorship of countless others and his own actions, Wiggins has forever improved the practice of psychology. Today he advocates eliminating current inequities in public access to mental health treatments through gaining prescriptive authority for psychologists." BiographyJack G.
