The Wisconsin Long Term Care Advisory Council was first created through the 1999 Wisconsin Act 9 with the responsibility to report annually to the legislature and to the Governor on the status of Family Care and assist in developing broad policy issues related to long-term care services. Wisconsin Act 9 sunset the Council as a legislative council as of July 21, 2001, but the council was reappointed a few months later as an advisory group to the Department on emerging issues in long-term care. The Council has continued to provide guidance to the secretary and make recommendations regarding long-term care policies, programs, and services.
