ARC to begin transitioning clients into new facility Saturday

By Freddie Bourne | Messenger-Inquirer

The new rehabilitation facility by Addiction Recovery Care (ARC) at the former OYO Townhouse hotel off West Second Street will begin a partial opening this weekend.

The facility — named the Yellow Banks Recovery Center — will be ARC’s first residential treatment program in western Kentucky.

Renovations have been ongoing at the facility since early 2022 after ARC — an organization headquartered in Louisa that provides residential and outpatient drug and alcohol addiction treatment — was approved for a conditional use permit for the addiction recovery center by the Owensboro Metropolitan Board of Adjustment in December 2021.

Sarah Adkins, site administrator for Yellow Banks Recovery Center, is looking forward to seeing the facility be put to use.
