Dr. Abraham can be given great credits to the NRI/PIO movement in the last 3 decades. Dr. Abraham coined the word PIO (people of Indian origin) in 1989, when he put together the First Convention of People of Indian Origin in New York. The greatest achievement of Dr. Abraham is initiating and building several NRI/PIO Indian community institutions as follows: Federation of Indian Association (FIA) of New York (1977); National Federation of Indian-American Associations (NFIA) (1980); Global Organization of People of Indian Origin (GOPIO) (1989); Indian American Kerala Cultural and Civic Center (1993); Jagdish Bhagwati Chair for Indian Political Economy at Columbia University (1992-2000); National Indian American Association for Senior Citizens (NIAASC, 1998); South Asian Council for Social Services (SACSS, 2000) and The Indus Nanotechnology Association (TINA 2011)
