About Bi Bett Corp Frederic Ozanam Center
The Frederic Ozanam Center is one of several treatment programs run by Bi-Bett Corporation, a Northern California nonprofit that has been providing substance use disorder care since 1969. Located at 2931 Prospect Street in Concord, the center is a women-focused residential program that supports adult women working to recover from alcohol and drug addiction. It is part of Bi-Bett’s broader continuum, which spans withdrawal management, residential treatment, perinatal residential care, intensive outpatient programming, and DUI education across Contra Costa, Alameda, and Solano counties.
Treatment at the Ozanam Center centers on the lived experience of women in recovery. Women often face unique pathways into addiction, including trauma histories, caregiving responsibilities, and intimate-partner dynamics, and a single-gender residential setting allows the clinical staff to address those issues directly without the social pressures of a co-ed environment. Days are structured around a mix of individual counseling sessions, process groups, educational sessions on addiction and relapse prevention, and community living tasks that help residents rebuild routine and accountability.
Bi-Bett’s mission, in its own words, is to inspire hope, empower recovery, and build community. That ethos shapes everything from the home-like physical environment to the affordable, mission-driven funding model. The Ozanam Center accepts Medi-Cal, and Bi-Bett emphasizes that financial barriers should not prevent women from accessing care. Payment assistance is available, and the nonprofit’s longstanding contracts with county behavioral health systems mean many residents enter treatment with little or no out-of-pocket expense.
Women completing the residential phase at Ozanam typically transition into Bi-Bett’s intensive outpatient or continuing care programming, maintaining the same therapeutic relationships and clinical philosophy as they re-engage with work, family, and independent living. Phone outreach to 925-676-4840 is the standard first step; the admissions team handles assessment, level-of-care recommendations, and referrals across the Bi-Bett system.
