OWENTON, Ky. (AP) — A Kentucky addiction treatment center for women is expanding.
Addiction Recovery Care said in a statement that its residential center in Owenton is increasing from 16 beds to nearly 100. Officials said the facility provides several services including detoxification, in-house and outpatient treatment and career opportunities for women with substance use disorders.
ARC CEO Tim Robinson said helping those in recovery find hope is key because it motivates them to complete treatment.
The expansion will also create more jobs. Officials say with the added beds, the facility expects to employ nearly 50 full-time staff.
