Central Wisconsin Health Partnership Awarded Grant
Waushara Argus, June 27, 2018
The Central WI Health Partnership (CWHP) was awarded a $300,000 grant over the next four years to strengthen the community’s ability to address social and economic factors that affect health. The Wisconsin Partnership Program at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health (SMPH) announced the recipients of its Community Collaboration Grants program, a new grant program designed specifically to strengthen community organizations’ ability to address health inequities through funding as well as training and technical assistance. The Partnership Program is pursuing this new direction in grantmaking in direct response to feedback from nonprofit organizations across the state. Grants totaling $1.5 million were awarded to five Wisconsin community-based organizations whose missions promote health equity. In addition to four years of technical assistance tailored to each organization, each grantee will receive $300,000 in funding. Family Health La Clinica and the Central Wisconsin Health Partnerships are organizations working to-gether to improve health outcomes in the six-county region of Adams, Juneau, Green Lake, Marquette, Waupaca, and Waushara Counties.

Senator Luther Olsen receives the 2018 Legislator of the Year Award from Kathy Munsey, Green Lake County Health Officer at a Central WI Health Partnership (CWHP) May 30, 2018
Senator Luther Olsen receives the 2018 Legislator of the Year Award from Kathy Munsey, Green Lake County Health Officer at a Central WI Health Partnership (CWHP) meeting on May 30, 2018 in Montello. CWHP members include Health and Human Services and Public Health staff from Adams, Juneau, Marquette, Green Lake, Waushara and Waupaca counties as well as Family Health La Clinica in Wautoma. The award was presented on behalf of the WI Public Health Association (WPHA) and the WI Association of Local Health Departments and Boards (WALHDAB).
Senator Olsen serves the 14th Senate District, which covers portions of Adams, Columbia, Dane, Dodge, Fond du Lac, Green Lake, Marquette, Waupaca and Waushara counties. He served in the Wisconsin State Assembly from 1994-2002 and has been the Senator from the 14th District since 2004.
Senator Olsen is the Chair of the Education Committee and the Legislative Council Study Committee on Property Tax Assessment Practices. He serves as Co-Chair of the Blue Ribbon Commission on School Funding and is the Vice-Chair of the budget-writing Joint Committee on Finance and the Committee on Public Benefits, Licensing and State-Federal Relations. He also serves on the Committee on Natural Resources and Energy.
Senator Olsen is a champion for WPHA and WALHDAB and improving public health in Wisconsin. This session, he was the lead author on Senate Bill 242, which provided funding to local health departments to control and prevent the spread of communicable diseases.
Senate Bill 242 received bipartisan support from legislators in urban, rural and suburban districts across Wisconsin. There was so much support for the bill, thanks in large part to Senator Olsen’s advocacy, that the bill was ultimately included in the 2017 – 2019 state budget that was signed into law in September 2017.
The funding totals $500,000 annually and is a continuing appropriation moving forward. Initial dollars have been allocated to local health departments and they must be spent by June 30, 2018. Munsey said, “Securing communicable disease funding was WPHA and WALHDAB’s top priority and I can honestly say we would not have been successful without Senator Olsen’s advocacy and leadership. Thank you Senator Olsen and congratulations on being selected the 2018 WPHA and WALHDAB Legislator of the Year.”
