Manitowoc Chamber Notebook: Corporate Guardians, based in Two Rivers, looks to expand

Corporate Guardians of Northeast Wisconsin, Inc., is a locally owned and operated agency that provides services related to guardianship throughout the state of Wisconsin. The agency began providing services in Manitowoc County in 2006 as a result of a request by the Manitowoc County Aging and Disability Resource Center. 

Since that time, the agency has grown to serve all counties throughout Wisconsin. In addition to guardianship, it also assists those who require support with services closely related to the agency's area of expertise, including: case management, guardianship consulting, power of attorney, trustee, special administrations and personal representative for estates. 

Presently, the agency works out of three offices: a corporate office in Two Rivers and two satellite offices in Beaver Dam and Richland Center. It has plans for expansion and expects to open several more satellite offices in the next several years.

The agency has a team of 16 highly trained professionals who exemplify positive, solution-driven leadership. The team feels passionately about providing the highest quality of service. The agency says it believes "in promoting independence, encouraging financial responsibility, reflecting professional attitudes and working towards positive, solution-driven outcomes."

The owners of CGNEW are a husband-and-wife team, Kay and Brian Schroeder. Kay and Brian believe in providing exceptional service and filling the gap for those whose family may be unable or unwilling to serve in these vitally important roles. They are committed to ensuring this excellence through continually striving to do better and be better. The CGNEW team is provided "out-of-the-box" training opportunities in an effort to help them to be their best selves.

Agency team members take part in various community outreach programs, including Kiwanis, The Chamber of Manitowoc County, Local I-Teams, WINGS (Working Interdisciplinary Network of Guardianship Stakeholders), The Mental Health Coalition Board, Manitowoc Co-Op, Memory Cafés, The Alzheimer's Association, Wisconsin Guardianship Association and National Guardianship Association. Additionally, its members have been honored to take an active role in several committees throughout the state whose goals are to better the guardianship system in Wisconsin.

In serving vulnerable individuals, it is Corporate Guardians of Northeast Wisconsin's passion and mission to ensure all individuals in need of guardianship services, trustees, estate representatives and power of attorneys have access to the highest quality services from its agency and beyond.

"We continue to strive for excellence in our field and collaborate with various guardianship stakeholders to pursue positive change throughout our state," the agency said.
