Overview

Mission

The purpose of the residential services association of Wisconsin is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and problems related to residential treatment and care, to identify common areas of concern, and to pool our resources and expertise toward the resolution of these problems. Additionally, the association provides training and education to meet the needs of operators and their employees in administering and implementing residential programs.

What it reported doing in 2016

The purpose of the residential services association of Wisconsin is to encourage and endorse the provision of quality services in a homelike setting to individuals in need of transitional services to aid them in achieving the maximum level of independent living possible. Rsa collaborated with aaidd wi to present dr. Terry young on the topic of the neuroscience of sexuality and sexual function for persons with developmental disabilities: clinical, legal & ethical considerations. Over 70 people attended to the half-day training. The training provided 3.0 hours of educational credits. Rsa held a one day conference at a nominal fee to its members and members of rfw entitled "transitions: the future is now! Making the most of change" held on october 21st at the wilderness resort in the Wisconsin dells. The sessions provided 5.5 hours of educational credits. Rsa had spent much of the year negotiating with other associations in pursuit of a merger. Rsa board members met with whca/wical, wala and leading age, but decided to focus on rfw. This decision was made by the board primarily due to rfw serving organizations workng with person with disabilities in day program and works setting and believed merging the two organizations fit best with the mission of rsa. This process is still being finalized. Rfw and rsa will host a conference on may 3-may 5, 2017 at glacier canyon conference center wilderness resort in the Wisconsin dells. The rsa membership is being updated on this process via newsletters and emails to the membership. Rsa sent out a survey to its members on the long-term care workforce crisis and collaborated with whca/wicai, wala and leading age to present a 2016 report that was sent to rsa members and also sent to the press to advocate for the need for more caregivers.

Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
