Wisconsin. Division of State-Local Affairs

The Division was established within the Dept. of Local Affairs and Development (see WIHV86-A1748) when the new department was created in 1967. In 1978, the Division ended as its two bureaus were elevated in status to become the Division of Community Development (see WIHV85-A895) and the Office of Research and Policy Analysis (see WIHV85-A892).

The Division of State-Local Affairs provided technical assistance to local governments, serving as a clearinghouse for data on state and federal aids, assisting in the development and coordination of community improvement programs, and encouraging area-wide solutions to governmental problems.
