The Department of Human Services requested two full‑time Children's Long‑Term Support (CLTS) case management positions to prepare for the State’s anticipated automatic enrollment process on Jan. 1, 2027; staff said the positions are funded by the Medicaid waiver and listed no county levy impact.

The full story

The Eau Claire County Department of Human Services asked the County Board to authorize two additional full‑time Children's Long‑Term Support (CLTS) case management positions (File No. 26‑27/042) to expand ongoing case management capacity ahead of an anticipated State change to automatic CLTS enrollment on Jan. 1, 2027. The packet said the request was driven by a high eligibility rate among youth screened in 2026 and by the likelihood that automatic enrollment would shift the timing and volume of children entering the ongoing caseload.
