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. Affiliated with Massachusetts General Hospital, the program includes clinics and a van on which Dr O'Connell and his staff ride through the Boston streets at night, offering outreach of medical care, socks, soup, and friendship to a marginalized community"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a O'Connell, James J. $q (James Joseph), $d 1948- 650 0 $a Homeless persons $x Services for $z Boston. $z Boston. 650 0 $a Homeless persons $x Care $z Boston. $z Boston. 650 0 $a Homelessness $z Boston. $z Boston. 650 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Large print books. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 941 $a 5 945 $a lpt 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240106010755.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230902011118.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20230830010516.0 952 $l KIPB845 $d 20230824013848.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230603010755.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F93ED56401D311EEACDD33752EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
