Ujima Central Outpatient Program

Ujima Family Recovery Services is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping families recover from alcoholism, drug addiction, and behavioral health problems. Since 1986, Ujima has made a significant contribution towards stopping substance abuse and empowering mothers and their families to develop life skills to lead healthy, productive lives.
The Ujima Central Mothers’ Program is an intensive outpatient treatment program located in Concord, California, designed to support the successful recovery of pregnant women and mothers. The program runs Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 12 noon and lasts six months. Services include group and individual counseling sessions, case management, free transportation for those in need, free childcare for children under six, random urine analyses, resources for state and local agencies, support in reunification of mothers, fathers, and children involved with Child and Family Services, in-house psychiatric appointments and medication management for eligible clients, comprehensive assessments, individualized treatment plans, and aftercare and discharge planning.
Ujima's outpatient treatment programs, located throughout Contra Costa County, promote recovery from drug and alcohol abuse for pregnant, postpartum, and parenting women with children. They respond to the unique needs of families devastated by addiction, helping women take responsibility for their own lives, promoting self-esteem and independence. Applicants meet with staff before being admitted, and the admission of children is determined on an individual basis for each mother, father, and child.
