The Honorable, The Senate:
The biennial budget bill,
1983 Wisconsin Act 27, enacted s.
46.275, Community Integration Program (CIP) for Residents of State Centers. The intent of this program "is to relocate persons from the state centers for the developmentally disabled into appropriate community settings with the assistance of home and community-based services and with continuity of care. The intent of the program is also to minimize its impact on state employees through redeployment of employees into vacant positions. S. 46. 275 (5m) requires the Department to submit a report to the Joint Committee on Finance and the Chief Clerk of each house of the Legislature describing the program's impact during the preceding calendar year on state employees, including the Department's efforts to redeploy employees into vacant positions and the number of employes laid off.
For the period of January 1, 1994 to December 31, 1994, there were 70 CIP placements, 5 CIP returnees, and 1 CIP diversion. For fiscal year 1994, reductions of $1,405,472 and 63.12 FTE were made in the budget for the purpose of CIP placements. For the period July 1, 1994 through December 31, 1994, sufficient reductions will be made in the fiscal year 1995 operating budget to reflect reductions for CIP placements. Reductions of positions and dollars have been made for calendar year 1994 with no layoff of employees
Sincerely,
richard w. lorang
Acting Secretary
