Bruce Weiss

Test Positive Aware Network (TPAN) announced Bruce Weiss has been named Executive Director of the Chicago-based AIDS service organization.

Bruce is that rare combination of experienced leadership and unbridled enthusiasm," stated TPAN Board President, Condon McGlothlen. "Everyone at TPAN is excited about his arrival."

"I feel very fortunate to be joining such a vibrant organization," said Weiss. "Chicago is a great city and the TPAN staff, board of directors and volunteers inspired me with their energy and passion the moment I walked through the front door. It is a remarkable organization providing important HIV prevention and care services."

Bill Farrand, who has served as TPAN's Interim Executive Director since October 2008, will continue in his role as the agency's Director of Client Services.

Bruce Weiss has held a great many gay related, and HIV related jobs, and was fired from Whitman Walker in DECEMBER. Instead of joining the DC Council fight to make Whitman Walker continue to fully serve the HIV Pos Gay community here, Bruce is off to Chicago - I hoped he was more than another gay professional living off the HIV problem, but as one of the patients he has left behind, I now think he is a voice for Bruce Weiss and not a voice for the HIV population. What will be his next HIV job?
