ARC is the largest drug and alcohol addiction treatment provider in Kentucky.
The layoffs will affect ARC’s workforce of 1,350 people. The company says they’re supporting those affected during the transition.
The company is also transitioning four of its facilities at its Louisa headquarters to housing for students receiving vocational training. It’s moving clients formerly housed there to other facilities.
A fifth facility in Owsley County is undergoing renovations and will reopen next year.
A spokesperson declined to say just how many employees and clients are being affected by the changes, because of respective personnel and medical privacy concerns.
The treatment provider is currently under investigation by the FBI for possible health care fraud. ARC says the layoffs are unrelated to the investigation.
