ARCSI Rebrands as ISSA Residential

ROSEMONT, IL -- To strengthen residential cleaners’ participation in the larger ISSA membership community, ARCSI, a Division of ISSA, has formally rebranded as ISSA Residential.

Members that previously joined the association under the ARCSI name will immediately transition their membership to ISSA rather than maintaining a separate division identity.

The ISSA Residential Cleaning Council, a group of ISSA Residential-member leaders, has been instrumental in leading this transition.

“The residential cleaning community has become more connected than ever to everything happening at ISSA and taking advantage of the many resources available to them,” said Jeannie Henderson, ISSA Residential Cleaning Council Chair. “The timing is perfect to clarify who we are within the association—we are the home cleaners for the worldwide cleaning industry.”

ISSA Residential will continue to focus on residential cleaning companies by:
• Facilitating ongoing education, networking, and commercial opportunities for members;
• Providing members with the highest quality, industry-specific, relevant news, content, and information;
• Offering the most widely accepted resources for professional best practices to help members establish the scientific connection on cleaning for health;
• Leading the way to establish a global residential cleaning community.

“ISSA Residential membership provides a vibrant professional community and continues to strive to be the competitive advantage for residential cleaning companies by delivering valuable tools, content, education and certifications, networking, and commercial opportunities,” said ISSA Residential Program Manager Erin Lasch. “Additionally, we will be the leading voice of the profession by advocating for government policies that align with our members’ needs.”

ISSA Residential members represent a flourishing and essential community within the worldwide cleaning association. They complement the entire industry value chain and connect the residential segment to an influential consumer audience.

ISSA Residential, formerly known as the Association of Residential Cleaning Services International (ARCSI), was established in 2003 to assist residential cleaning service owners in starting, promoting, building, and expanding their businesses. The organization merged with ISSA in January 2017 to become ARCSI, a Division of ISSA, and in 2023 transitioned to ISSA Residential to better align with the greater ISSA community.
