History

In January 2008, CCLS' expansion continued with the inception of a new region called the North Western Region. This region split off of the Western Region and provides supports to clients in Buffalo, Trempeleau, Jackson, Clark, Pepin, Eau Claire, Chippewa, Dunn, Pierce and St. Croix Counties. The first programs in these counties were opened in 1978 (Jackson County) and 1980 (Trempeleau County).
