Hide Profile

The State Board of Control was created by Chapter 221, Laws of 1891, as the State Board of Control of Wisconsin Reformatory, Charitable and Penal Institutions. It assumed the duties of the former State Board of Charities and Reform (WIHV88-A416) and the State Board of Supervision of Wisconsin Charitable, Reformatory, and Penal Institutions (WIHV87-A1267). The State Board of Control was abolished as an independent agency in 1939 and its functions were assumed by divisions of the newly created State Department of Public Welfare (WIHV85-A488). This form of agency name is used for all appropriate records in the Wisconsin State Archives' database, 1891-1939.

The State Board of Control supervised the operations of all state reform, penal, and charitable institutions, including their finanacial management and the establishment of rules and regulations for their governance. The Board was responsible also for the selection of key personnel in the institutions, and for supervision of the overall treatment of patients and inmates.
