The Todd Ouida Children’s Foundation was founded in honor of Todd Ouida, 25, who was killed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Because Ouida suffered from severe childhood anxiety before becoming a successful young man, his parents created the foundation to help other children with similar difficulties. The foundation has presented an annual conference on issues of childhood anxiety for four years now.
