Our Community

Welcome to Eka

We introduce Eka to you as a beacon of hope, compassion, and inclusion: Established with a heartfelt mission to serve special needs students across age groups, disabilities, and severity, Eka stands as a testament to the transformative power of education, compassion, and unwavering dedication.

Eka means “one” in Sanskrit. ‘One’ comprises everything, our vision of the inclusive world, our motto of creating 1 path to make our students part of one community.

At Eka, we believe that every individual, regardless of their challenges or limitations, deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. Our commitment to inclusivity knows no bounds as we extend our hand of support to students of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities. Whether it's a child with autism, a teenager with Down syndrome, or an adult with cerebral palsy, Eka embraces diversity and celebrates the unique gifts and talents that each individual brings to our community.

Founded on the principles of empathy, integrity, and empowerment, Eka strives to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported. From early intervention programs to vocational training initiatives, we offer a comprehensive range of services tailored to meet the diverse needs of our students.

But our work extends beyond the confines of the classroom. Through our charitable initiatives, we aim to break down barriers and create pathways to opportunity for individuals with special needs. From providing education & employment to advocating for policy changes, Eka is dedicated to creating a more inclusive society where every individual has the chance to fulfill their potential.

As we stand on the cusp of a new era of possibility and progress, we welcome you to join us in our mission to champion the rights and dignity of special needs individuals everywhere. Together, let us build a future where barriers are replaced with bridges, where stigma is replaced with understanding, and where every individual is given the chance to shine.
