Centerstone and Seven Counties Services recently announced that they have finalized an affiliation that will combine their operations, creating a five-state, non-profit behavioral health organization serving more than 150,000 people of all ages annually. The affiliation was unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both organizations.

Seven Counties, which is headquartered in Louisville, Ky., serves 34,000 people annually in its 31 locations across Bullitt, Henry, Jefferson, Oldham, Shelby, Spencer, and Trimble counties. As part of the affiliation with Centerstone, all Seven Counties facilities, including its 80-bed inpatient addictions center, will remain open, and none of its providers or services will change. The organization changed its name to Centerstone of Kentucky in November 2016.
