Who We Are:
For over 34 years, Eden I&R has been successfully fulfilling
its mission of “linking people and resources”
by consistently and creatively responding to the community’s
changing needs. The agency’s services are the results of
collaborations that depend on the work of hundreds of community-based
organizations. Because no other centralized source for health, housing, and human services information
exists anywhere else in Alameda County, Eden I&R has become
a critical resource for thousands of at-risk individuals, such as
youth, non-English speakers, the economically disadvantaged, people
living with HIV/AIDS, domestic violence survivors, the elderly,
disabled, the homeless, and human service agencies seeking services
or housing for their clients.
Current programs include:
-
2-1-1 Alameda County Phone
Line
-
Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) phone line
-
AIDS Housing and Information Project (AHIP)
-
Roving Housing Resource Programs (including the Housing Academy)
-
After-Hours Emergency Phone Services for Alameda County’s
Child and Adult Protective Services, Foster Care Placement
Line, and the Public Guardian's Office
-

-
Social Services Database

of Human Services for Alameda County, an annual printed directory

Eden I & R, Inc., was incorporated as a non-profit 501(c)(3)
agency in January 1976 in response to a community need for a service
that would assist people in obtaining information about, as well
as gaining access to, community resources. Our skilled information
management and referral specialists provide a critical information
bridge between individuals in need and human service agencies.
