Boys Town has been a national leader in the care and treatment of children since its founding more than 100 years ago by Father Edward Flanagan.
As one of the largest nonprofit, nonsectarian child and family care organizations in the country, Boys Town provides compassionate, research-proven treatment for behavioral, emotional and physical problems.
Boys Town’s outreach is national in scope, with treatment and care programs at more than a dozen sites across the country. We believe that every child, regardless of circumstance, deserves the opportunity to succeed. We also recognize that every child is an individual with unique needs. That’s why, over many decades, we have developed a distinctive, research-based approach to achieving our vision that has proven successful for tens of thousands of children and families.
Founded in 1930, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is a professional membership organization of 67,000 pediatricians committed to the optimal physical, mental, and social health and well-being for all infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. AAP is the nation’s leading advocacy organization for children, and the leading source of children’s health-related information for pediatricians and their patients.
AAP also oversees HealthyChildren.org, the only parenting website backed by pediatricians, and has the largest pediatric publishing program in the world, with more than 300 titles for consumers and over 500 for physicians and other health care professionals, including Pediatrics, its monthly scientific journal, and AAP News, its membership news magazine. For more information on AAP publications, please visit http://www.aappublications.org.
AAP headquarters is in Itasca, IL.; AAP also operates a federal affairs office in Washington, DC. Join our team and play a role in shaping the way children’s health is provided in the U.S. Since 2005, AAP has been named one of the 101 Best and Brightest Companies to Work for in Chicagoland.
