             Dear Members of the Community, 
               
              Thank you for visiting Ozanam. We invite you to look through the 
              pages and links that explain a bit of what Ozanam is. We are a treatment 
              center for children with severe emotional, behavioral, or learning 
              problems, and their families. What you will see throughout these 
              pages, however, is that we are much more than that. Ozanam programs 
              serve over 3000 children and families on a yearly basis. We have 
              taken on the challenge of helping these children who may have been 
              abused, or neglected, or who need more help in learning than what 
              the public schools can offer them. We help the teachers in the community 
              who are looking for answers to the question of how to teach children 
              with behavior or learning disorders. 
               
              We invite you, as community members to get involved in this challenge. 
              We rely on the support of community members just like you
 
              companies, individuals, teachers, parents, volunteers, etc. We have 
              a variety of ways for you to get involved, including mentoring or 
              tutoring an Ozanam resident (see Volunteer 
              Opportunities), getting involved in the planning 
              of special events (See Special 
              Events), or in giving to one of our program needs 
              (See Charitable Giving). 
              Please browse through the pages of this site, take a look at the 
              Newsletter, 
              and let us know if you would like more information on anything you 
              see (see below for contact information), or if you find something 
              that strikes you and you would like to get more involved.
