Inspire boys to be confident and caring with the stories of twenty-five fascinating men in the innovative fields of HEAL--Health, Education, Arts, and Literacy.

He Can HEAL: Arts and Literacy tells the stories of men who have followed their dreams, cared for others, and changed the world, conveyed through biography, illustration, and simple suggested activities. A celebration of diverse role models for boys, He Can HEAL encourages boys to pursue paths in unexpected and often underrepresented fields.
