Sometimes there are unplanned activities at the summer meal program.... like todays kitten rescue! Kids found a sweet orange tabby in the wheel well of a car. They rescued him, brought him to the shelter where our dedicated volunteer had the purrrrfect kitten pen!

He got some food and is heading to the vet for a wellness check! One of our staff is able to foster him or keep him. If anyone in the Smithtown/Coolavin neighborhood is missing their kitten, please contact [email protected]!

We are so grateful to support from Lexington Department of Social Services to make these food literacy classes happen!

Thank you FoodChain for always providing our clients with the knowledge to stay healthy on their recovery journey!

What Recovery, Community Partnership, and team morale taste like 😋 . We at Bluegrass Recovery do recovery differently: individual care, individual support.
