SAB-Schulassistenten

What SAB-Schulassistenten does

SAB-Schulassistenten, operating legally as SAB.Ruhr GmbH (Fachdienst für Teilhabemanagement), is a private, for-profit social services provider headquartered in Bochum, Germany. The company delivers three core services for people with disabilities in the Ruhr region: Schulbegleitung (qualified school accompaniment for children and adolescents with disabilities to enable inclusive education), Persönliches Budget (personal budget management supporting autonomous daily-life, study and workplace assistance for adults with disabilities), and Familienunterstützender Dienst (respite and relief services for families caring for impaired children). Two managing directors, Deni Halilovic and Andreas Buchholz, lead the entity, which has 1–10 employees and was observed actively operating as of 2025–2026.

The service portfolio is complemented by a pedagogical case-counseling team led by Dr. Ute Kaufmann covering Heilerziehungspflege, Autismusberatung and heilpädagogische Unterstützung, plus a recurring calendar of in-person training seminars (autism, child protection, first aid, documentation, de-escalation/self-defense). The company also operates the Klassenklima podcast and a members portal (mein.sab.ruhr). Underlying technology is characterized as a "social services and disability assistance management platform," but the products are predominantly human-delivered care rather than software products, and no proprietary AI/ML, API or SDK capabilities are disclosed.

The business model is B2B2C within Germany's statutory disability assistance framework: revenue is generated by placing trained Schulbegleiter in schools and supporting personal-budget holders, with payment flowing from social-insurance carriers and other Kostenträger. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and there are no funding rounds, external investors or parent-company relationships in the available data. Distribution is regional and direct, with a secondary Dortmund venue used for some training events.
