Recovery Kentucky

Recovery Kentucky was created to help Kentuckians recover from substance abuse, which often leads to chronic homelessness. There are 13 Recovery Kentucky centers across the Commonwealth: in Bowling Green, Campbellsville, Erlanger, Florence, Grayson, Harlan, Henderson, Hopkinsville, Owensboro, Paducah, Richmond, Somerset, and Knott County. These centers provide housing and recovery services for up to 2,000 Kentuckians.

In this episode, we speak with Mike Townsend, who oversees the Recovery Kentucky program for Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC), and Stephanie McCarty, director of recovery services at the Women's Additions Recovery Manor (WARM) in Henderson, about the program's history, philosophy, and impact.
