East Bay Community Recovery Project

ebcrp has provided substance abuse, mental health, and other health related services since 1989. with locations in oakland and hayward, california, we offer a full range of services including a residential substance use program for pregnant and parenting moms to supported housing programs for veterans. ebcrp has historically helped the most underserved people in alameda county. we reach out to those living with co-occurring substance abuse and psychiatric disorders. ebcrp's organizational philosophy is captured in the following statement, made by our executive director, joan ellen zweben, ph.d.: "we have a broad view of our mission; successful treatment has effects which expand outward. the recovering person needs to take responsibility for his or her own life, and also participate in creating a new social environment. staff and clients join in this task, influencing families, neighborhoods, and the urban area around us."
