Virtual Book Reading with TPAN Chicago
Thursday March 25 @ 6:00pm CT

TPAN presents the launch of an inspiring new book—When Dogs Heal: Powerful Stories of People Living with HIV and the Dogs That Saved Them. Changing the narrative surrounding life with HIV, the book is a series of deeply personal accounts that tell a story of connection, survival, and the transformative power of a dog’s unconditional love.

You’re invited to join TPAN and host Candice Jordan on March 25 for a discussion featuring the author of When Dogs Heal, Dr. Rob Garofalo, an HIV specialist whose practice centers on adolescents and LGBTQ youth, and award-winning dog photographer Jesse Freidin. Join us as we discuss the book, share our life journeys—and, of course, talk about dogs! Dr. Rob will be joined by some of the people living with HIV who appear in the book, and by Julie Supple, TPAN’s programs director, who will discuss Paws n’ Effect, TPAN’s program that brings together people living with HIV with a dog companion.

When you purchase When Dogs Heal from Unabridged Books, either online or at their store, Unabridged will donate 20% of the book price to TPAN! All proceeds go directly to the Paws n’ Effect program, which helps find safe forever homes for rescue dogs from Felines and Canines shelter.
