To the Honorable, the Assembly:
The biennial budget bill,
1983 Wisconsin Act 27, created 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 to 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 employees laid off.
A797
For the period of January 1, 1997 to December 31, 1997, there were 75 placements of center residents into the community. For fiscal year 1997, reductions of $4,817,271 and 107.80 FTE were made in the budget for the purpose of CIP placements. For the period July 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997, sufficient reductions will be made in the fiscal year 1998 operating budget to reflect reductions for CIP placements. Reductions of positions and dollars have been made for calendar year 1997 with only two employees being laid off during the year. Six layoffs have occurred at the centers due to the CIP program since the program began in 1983. All other reductions have been absorbed through attrition of employees.
For calendar year 1998, there will be a significantly greater number of employees placed at risk and actually laid off. For the period, January 1, 1998 through March 31, 1998, 115 employees have been placed at risk with 19 layoffs to date. Additional employees will be placed at risk and laid off between April 1 and June 30, 1998.
Sincerely,
Joe Leean
Secretary, DHFS
