Born from a Decade of Listening
Zati Lebanon began in the field, observing a gap that clinical sessions alone couldn’t bridge.
We saw families navigating neurodiversity in isolation, often without the community support they deserved. We founded Zati to turn that isolation into a shared journey.
By combining our professional backgrounds with a deep personal commitment, we’ve built a space where families find both the tools to grow and the dignity to thrive.

Ralph Eid is a Lebanese attorney with 20+ years of experience in commercial, real estate, construction, and civil law, known for his disciplined approach and commitment to justice and human dignity.
As co-founder of Zati Lebanon, he leads its legal and advocacy work to protect the rights of individuals with autism and support inclusive systems for families and vulnerable communities.

Georges leads our community-driven initiatives with a focus on operational heart.
His work ensures that Zati remains a reliable partner for international organizations while staying deeply rooted in the needs of our local neighborhoods.

With over 5 years of experience in community development, Elsy El Irany serves as the Project Manager at Zati Lebanon Association. She acts as the essential bridge between our heart and the neurodiverse families we serve. Elsy specializes in proposal writing, project coordination, and building strategic partnerships to drive impactful community programs.
We see the person, not the diagnosis. Every program we design is built to respect the individual potential of every child we meet.
Inclusion shouldn’t be a luxury. We work to make Lebanon’s public spaces and communities accessible to everyone through presence and education.
We avoid quick fixes. We focus on building the long-term resilience that allows families to sustain their progress long after our sessions end.
We believe that empowerment is a collective community effort.

We take therapy out of the room and into the streets. We teach our children to navigate the world while simultaneously teaching the world how to welcome them.

We treat the family as a single unit. Our sessions empower parents as partners, replacing the overwhelm of a diagnosis with practical tools for the home.

Neurodiversity and trauma often intersect. We offer specialized support for family emotional stability.

We view neurodiversity as a human right. Our work replaces outdated stigmas with scientific understanding that communities can use every day.
Whether you are seeking support, a professional partnership, or a way to give back, there is a place for you in the Zati family.
