| Ozanam is a nonprofit, Kansas City-based 
              treatment center for children with behavioral and emotional problems 
              and learning disabilities. Ozanam provides residential treatment, 
              coeducational day treatment, group home living, independent living 
              services and behavior consultation services for schools.
 Ozanam began in 1948 with one man and a group of 
              volunteers who found and cared for 6 boys who had been abused and 
              abandoned and had no where to turn. This man then turned this small 
              operation into Ozanam Home for Boys where the name Ozanam became 
              synonymous with caring for abused and neglected teenaged boys. Since 
              1948, Ozanam has served thousands of children, boys and girls, aged 
              5-23. Ozanam is expanding to meet the needs of all children with 
              emotional, behavioral and learning problems and helping to make 
              children into productive, self-maintaining members of society who 
              can be successful in the community in which we all live. Through a wide array of programs Ozanam serves a 
              variety of children and their families.
