Counties in every corner of the state are feeling the impact of increased opiate, heroin and meth use, with the child welfare system taking one of the biggest hits. 
WCA Government Affairs Director Kyle Christianson, along with Douglas County Administrator Andy Lisak and Racine County Executive Jonathan Delagrave, testified on Tuesday, December 6 before the Assembly Transportation Committee. 
In 2010, WCA began the County Ambassador Program (CAP). The goal of this program is to engage county officials in the Association's efforts to educate lawmakers on the important role of county government. This is done through direct dialogue with members of the Legislature. 
The role and relationship of government with the private sector has changed in recent years. The creation of the WCA Associate Member Program is one more way WCA is reaching out to bring together the public and private sectors.
