Summary
ADRC staff said they are applying for a Rural Community Health Worker grant that would fund three full-time workers and a half-time supervisor for five years; agency reports also noted increased Adult Protective Services referrals, volunteer-hours totals, recent hires, and a low SNAP payment error rate for Wisconsin.
At the manager update, Ms. Mya Olkowski said the ADRC is working with Oneida County Human Services and Public Health to apply for a Rural Community Health Worker grant that would create "3 full time positions and half time supervisor position created from this grant" funded for five years.
Agency representative Ms. Beth Hoerchler reported four positions filled in June and July, ongoing recruitments for behavioral health roles and a posted finance technician role, and that Wisconsin was "one of just 9 states whose SNAP payment error rates were under 6% so there is no payment required to the federal government." Ms. Olkowski also noted Adult Protective Service referrals are up significantly compared with last year and that volunteer hours for May 2026 totaled 1,062.75 hours.
