41st RSA Wisconsin Annual Conference
“Building Bridges”


Effectively working with a variety of people and groups to serve those we support is an integral component of working as a residential provider. Staff, families, guardians, MCOs, ADRCs, DQA, our communities, and the clients themselves are all a part of this process. Since they all have different needs and expectations, relationship building with each of them is critical. During the 2010 RSA Wisconsin Annual Conference, we will focus on “Building Bridges” and how to attain the solid, trustworthy relationships that are so necessary in our field.
