At Addiction Recovery Care (ARC), we believe that a major solution to the nation’s workforce shortage is lying dormant in the lives of those struggling with addiction and alcoholism. This has been made evident with half of our 500+ person workforce being in recovery.
With that being said, we wanted to share our video that highlights the recent renovations to downtown Louisa – renovations of Masterpiece Cafe, The Junction (event venue), and The Historic Garden Theater.
Much of these renovations were done by ARC program graduates who are either in our job training program or full-time employees. We are so thankful for the many hours, blood, sweat, and tears that our Construction and Project Crews put in to renovating Masterpiece Cafe, The Junction (event venue), and The Historic Garden Theater.
We hope that you take the time to watch how we are “Rebuilding Downtown Louisa with Restored Lives.”
I am not a fan of progress @ all!!!! I was born n Louisa n 1955 n the old General Hospital & will always remember Louisa the way it was n the ‘70’s which were the best times to me!!!!
Totally agree especially with who is doing it and how they are financing it.
Progress will happen with us or without us Terry.
That said, I also remember Louisa in the 70’s. Hardly any crime, no pillheads and no meth. The old iron toll-bridge; it took longer to get across the bridge, than drive through Louisa. Life was slower then, and much more pleasant in my opinion. All kids have to remember now is who the last one was that died of an overdose. What a sad society we have become. Now people can’t their noses out of their phones long enough to look around and see what will soon be their own memories; now that may be a good thing? I left that area in 1996, and doubt I will ever return. I was born in Paintsville, in ‘that’ old hospital. Nothing is the same anywhere anymore. I would like to cross that old bridge one more time…but no. 🙂
I love what is happening in downtown Louisa! Keep up the great work! It is uplifting to see renovated buildings being used instead of depressing empty buildings. I was born in Louisa, educated in Fort Gay and have returned for my retirement years.
