FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cedar Grove Recovery Named Best Addiction Treatment Center in Louisville for 2026

BusinessRate Best of 2026 Award Honors Cedar Grove Recovery for Patient-Centered Care and Service Excellence

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Cedar Grove Recovery has been named the Best Addiction Treatment Center in Louisville for 2026 by BusinessRate. The recognition is part of the BusinessRate Best of 2026 Awards program, which ranks local businesses based entirely on verified patient feedback. The award is not applied for or nominated. It is earned by the people delivering care.

Cedar Grove Recovery serves a patient population that many facilities choose not to. The individuals who come through its doors are often dealing with complex, co-occurring needs, limited resources, and histories that reflect the gaps in how this country treats addiction. Cedar Grove made a deliberate decision to serve that population. That decision shapes everything about how the facility operates and who it employs.

The 2026 BusinessRate recognition reflects what Louisville patients and families have said about their experience at Cedar Grove. For a facility doing this kind of work with this population, that feedback carries real weight. It means the team is getting it right where it is hardest to do so.

The recognition also comes as Alsos Behavioral Health continues to invest in facilities and clinical teams willing to do the difficult work of expanding access to quality treatment for the people who need it most.

“We made a decision early on to serve people who are underserved and underrepresented in addiction treatment. That means the work is harder. The patients are more complex. The challenges are greater. And the staff we have built are exactly the kind of people who show up for that every single day. This award belongs to them. It is a reflection of the impact they are achieving, day in and day out.”

-- Tia Connard, CEO, Cedar Grove Recovery

“Alsos does not look for the easiest markets or the most straightforward patient populations. We look for places where quality care is missing and where the right team can make a real difference. Cedar Grove is that. The recognition they have earned in Louisville reflects a team that chose to do the hard work and did it well.”

-- Matt Boyle, CEO, Alsos Behavioral Health

“It takes a specific kind of organization to commit to serving underserved populations and sustain that commitment over time. Cedar Grove has done that. The clinical and operational infrastructure they have built to support this patient population is something we are proud of across the entire organization.”

-- Lance Folske, COO, Alsos Behavioral Health

“The quality of care at Cedar Grove starts with the people who show up and run the building every day. Our team is deeply committed to this patient population, and that commitment shows in every interaction. This award reflects their effort and their heart.”

-- Rhonda Hertel, Assistant Executive Director, Cedar Grove Recovery

“Clinically, this is demanding work. The patients we serve carry a lot. Our job is to meet them where they are, build a plan that actually fits their needs, and walk alongside them through it. Our clinical team does that with a level of dedication that I am genuinely proud of.”

-- Erika Keplinger, Clinical Director, Cedar Grove Recovery
