Harriett Copher Haynes Diversity Leadership Mentoring AwardDr. Harriett Copher Haynes has spent her professional lifetime admiringly serving both the profession of psychology and the greater community. She received her B.S. in Nursing in 1963 from the University of Missouri, and from the University of Minnesota, an M.S. in Public Health in 1966 and a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology in 1979. She was employed at the University of Minnesota Counseling & Consulting Services for 40 years (1971-2011) and served as Director for 15 of those years (1992-2007). In addition to providing strong center leadership, Dr. Haynes served as a leader, mentor role model and consultant for the university community, addressing issues of diversity, sexism, racism, responding to students in crisis, sexual violence/ending rape culture, mediation, crisis response, women's issues, multicultural curriculum development, and managing organizational change. In addition to her University responsibilities Dr. Haynes served as President of the Minnesota Psychological Association. She also held the positions of Treasurer, Ombudsperson, and Chair of the Women’s Division within the Association. She has also been active in advocacy efforts with state legislators, serving as the voice of psychology and diversity on the Governor’s Mental Health Council. Additional volunteer commitments included involvement with Save Our Hungry Children, The Board of Dakota Communities for the Developmentally Disabled, and a volunteer presenter for the Association for Citizens with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities. In recognition of her outstanding professional and societal contributions, the Minnesota Psychological Association has awarded Dr. Haynes both the Diversity in Leadership Award and the Community Involvement Award. In presenting the latter award, Dr. Haynes was described as “the voice, sometimes quiet ,often with good humor, always with great command, of reason, fairness, conscience, compromise, and equality.” Call for Nominations for the 2024 AwardIn one effort to encourage and enhance diversity and inclusive excellence within our counseling center directorship, AUCCCD offers the Diversity Leadership Mentoring Program.
