We'll discuss Rough Sleepers by Tracy Kidder. Books are available at the Adult & Teen Services Desk one month before each discussion.
When he graduated from Harvard Medical School, Jim O'Connell was asked by the medical school Dean to spend one year setting up a program to care for the homeless population in Boston. It became Jim O'Connell's life calling, to help people known as "rough sleepers." For the past three decades, Dr. O'Connell has run the Boston Healthcare for the Homeless Program, which he helped to create.
Coffee and donuts will be served.
Contact the Adult & Teen Services department at ATS@dglibrary.org for more information.
