History

The Zydowskie Towarzystwo Opieki Spolecznej (Jewish Social Welfare Association) was made subordinate to the Jewish Welfare Committee of the City of Warsaw, the institution licensed by the Germans. In 1941-11 ZTOS lost its autonomy and under a new name – Zydowska Opieka Spoleczna (Jewish Social Welfare) – became a section of the ZKOM.
