To the Honorable, the Legislature:
The Community Integration Program (CIP) for residents of State Centers was created by
1983 Wisconsin Act 27. According to s.
46.275 of the Wisconsin statutes, this program is intended:
...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.
Under Wisconsin statutes s.
46.275 (5m), the Department is required to submit an annual 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 prior calendar year on state employees, including the Department's efforts to redeploy employees into vacant positions and the number of employees laid off.
