Lester F. Ward Distinguished Contributions to Applied and Clinical Sociology Award –  Recipient: Professor Tina Uys, Ph.D., C.C.S

  • The Ward award is a prestigious honour named after pioneering sociologist known for his contributions to applied sociology.  Lester F. Ward  is one of the founding figures of sociology in the United States.  Ward’s  progressive ideas and significant contributions to applied sociology, advocating for the use of sociological knowledge to improve society. He  laid the foundation for sociology as a practical science, emphasizing that sociology should actively contribute to societies betterment. Ward’s contributions include believing in the potential of sociology to guide social progress. He argued that society could be improved through intentional social planning and the application of scientific knowledge. This idea was radical at the time, as it positioned sociology as a proactive tool for social change. Ward coined the term “telesis,” which is  the idea of purposeful social evolution guided by human intelligence. He argued that as individuals plan their lives, societies could be planned to promote the general welfare, reduce inequalities, and improve quality of life. Ward’s ideas contrasted sharply with the views of Spencer, who was famous for his theory of “social Darwinism,” which saw society’s progress as a natural selection process. Ward opposed the idea that society should be left to evolve on its own without intervention, as he believed this would only perpetuate inequality and suffering. Ward saw education as a central vehicle for social change. He argued that a well-educated populace could make informed decisions, contributing to a more democratic and egalitarian society. He saw public education as essential to overcoming social barriers. Ward’s belief that sociology should be applied to real-world problems influenced the development of applied and clinical sociology. He set a precedent for sociologists to engage with issues like poverty, inequality, and social justice, using sociological research and theories to enact change. Ward’s work was foundational in establishing sociology as both a scientific discipline and a tool for social improvement. His ideas continue to influence sociologists who focus on the practical application of sociology to address social challenges.
  • This award is presented by AACS to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the field of applied or clinical sociology. Award recipients have demonstrated a sustained commitment to the practical application of sociological theories, research, and methods to address social issues and improve social conditions. This involves working directly within communities, conducting impactful research, developing interventions, or contributing to public policy in ways that utilize sociological insights to make meaningful changes.

  • Alex Boros was a prominent figure in Applied and Clinical Sociology, recognized for his contributions to the Association for Applied and Clinical Sociology (AACS). The Alex Boros Award is named in his honour and is awarded to AACS members who have made distinguished contributions to the association.

  • This year, we honor the decades of service by Dr. Lindy Hern. Dr. Hern serves as an associate professor and chair of the Sociology Department at the University of Hawaii at Hilo, with a strong focus on health care reform and social activism. Known as a scholar-activist, Dr. Hern has extensively studied the grassroots “Medicare for All” movement in the U.S., emphasizing its growth within progressive social movements and the critical role of narratives in mobilizing public support for healthcare reform. Her recent book, Single Payer Healthcare Reform: Grassroots Mobilization and the Turn Against Establishment Politics in the Medicare for All Movement, provides a detailed analysis of how the movement has evolved in response to U.S. political shifts, examining how activism has been shaped by opportunities and challenges over different presidential administrations. Beyond her work in healthcare, Dr. Hern has researched student retention and community responses to natural disasters. She frequently engages with the public through lectures and discussions, where she shares insights into the interplay between activism and social policy, particularly around universal healthcare systems. Her academic and activist efforts underscore her commitment to social justice, with a focus on accessible healthcare and community resilience. Dr. Lindy Hern, persistent and passionate contributions to the AACS, is evident since she has been active in AACS for more than a decade, and her efforts toward sustaining and maintaining this organization deserve accolades. In direct service to AACS, Dr. Hern has a hand in the success of numerous annual conferences (including this year’s online proceedings), while also acting as an officer (currently our President-Elect) for the organization. Dr. Hern has been a vigorous recruiter for AACS, bringing in a generation of scholars who also have stepped into leadership roles. Her actions this year alone have ensured the engagement and participation of our membership needed to chart a path forward to 2025 and beyond. As a scholar-activist with a focus on the single-payer healthcare movement in the United States, Dr. Hern embodies the spirit of AACS as an organization dedicated to the profession of Public Sociology. Her contributions on her home campus in Hilo, Hawaii, include studying student retention and responses to natural disasters. She also serves as department chair for Sociology. Moreover and most importantly, Dr. Hern is a leader and empathetic colleague who truly believes in the value of Sociology, and she is always willing to take on additional roles in support of AACS. In the past five years as the AACS navigated COVID-19 and the post-COVID logistics of sustaining membership and meetings Dr Hern was nothing short of exemplary.

I started by hiring two therapists. They both got full pretty quickly and I hired more… and more. Today, we have 23 therapists plus support staff. I’ve also created a teaching institution within Cypress for mental health students in their graduate program. We offer them clients and a community of therapists they consult with on a weekly basis. We believe in providing therapy to everyone who needs it. For this reason, we partnered with a local non-profit (Project No Labels) so we can offer free services to people who inquire about therapy but can’t afford it. Further, we have multiple specialties at Cypress, so we can help most clients who seek treatment.
