Who We Are.
​
At EIHAB Human Services, our core mission is to provide exemplary services to individuals with developmental disabilities and behavioral health challenges. We take pride in our commitment to multilingualism and multiculturalism, ensuring that everyone, regardless of background, receives the support they need to lead fulfilling lives.
​
EIHAB has grown from a small agency specializing in individualized habilitative and support services spanning New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Our team of professionals, including trained direct support professionals, clinicians, administrators, habilitation specialists who work collaboratively to deliver compassionate care and person-centered planning.
We believe in the inherent potential of every individual and strive to empower them to achieve self-reliance and become valued members of society. Our focus on excellence is reflected in our rigorous standards of compliance, diverse experiences for individuals, commitment to enhancing employee well-being, and continuous efforts to expand development opportunities.
​
At EIHAB, we are dedicated to serving under-served and hard-to-serve communities, increasing public awareness of their needs, and fostering inclusive environments where everyone can thrive. Our vision is for individuals to have quality supports that are meaningful and responsive to their strengths, needs, and choices, enabling them to live as valued members of their communities.
​
Through our collective wisdom, strategic approach, and unwavering commitment to excellence, we aim to make a lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.
FOUNDER'S DAY
On May 17, EIHAB Human Services proudly celebrates Founders Day, honoring the vision and legacy behind the organization’s beginnings.
EIHAB was founded in 1997, with a passion for advocacy and inclusion laid the foundation for an agency dedicated to serving individuals with developmental disabilities and their families. The vision was soon carried forward and expanded by the original founder's mother, Fatma Abboud, who stepped in to lead the organization and guide it through years of impactful growth.
​
Under Fatma's compassionate leadership, what began as a small case management agency has evolved into a multi-state, full-service organization, now enhancing the lives of hundreds of individuals and families across New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.
​
In recognition of its commitment to service and family-driven values, EIHAB received SmartCEO’s 2016 Family Business Award — a symbol of the enduring legacy that began with a son’s vision and a mother’s devotion. With over 25 years of service, Founders Day is a moment to reflect on our journey, honor those who paved the way, and recommit to the mission that continues to guide us. We thank every staff member, family, and supporter who has been a part of the EIHAB story. Together, we continue to build a future rooted in dignity, support, and opportunity for all.
