The Administration series is the largest series. This series includes; audits, clippings, contracts, correspondence, financial records, history, job descriptions, licensure and certification, manuals, marketing, minutes, monthly summaries, plans, proposals, publications, reports, and tax returns. The series contains documentation pertaining to the creation, finances, publicity, and management of Individualized Home Nursing Care. There is a large amount of minutes, which document board of directors, committee, sub-committee, and review committee meetings. Through the minutes the social programs, outreach planning, marketing, particular aspects of patient care and specific financial concerns are detailed. Materials of interest may include correspondence between Individualized Home Nursing Care and Yomiuri Shimbun, a Japanese newspaper, regarding the work done by Individualized Home Nursing Care. There is also information pertaining to the subsequent partnership that evolved which resulted in the United States and Japan Training Institute in Geriatric Care. The series also includes detailed information pertaining to the financial state of the organization and statistics regarding patient care, which can be found in the audit documentation, monthly summaries, and the tax information. The founding documentation within the history sub series may also be of interest because it documents the evolving goals, mission statement, and responsibilities of the organization and its board members.

The Administration series contains seven subseries. The Board of Directors subseries includes SAC corporate papers, minutes for 1988-1991 and 1999-2001, strategic plans, and the 2000-2001 Board revitalization process. The Clippings subseries highlight SAC activities in the public eye through the three decades of existence and is a primary source for finding details on SAC activities in Ann Arbor and around the state. Included in this subseries are the contents of a scrapbook of newspaper clippings, damaged by the 2002 fire, documenting the Black History case. This case received national attention and was cited in the New York Times and other major newspapers. The Office Management subseries contains general information used for the public relations and partial information on fundraising activities. No budgetary information was available in the records as accessioned. The Publications subseries includes the SAC newsletter, "Active Voice" from 1975 to 2002. There is also a copy of "The Fourth 'R', Student Rights, A Handbook for Michigan Public School Students and Their Families," an article entitled "Access Denied," and two relevant articles that appeared in the Administrative Law Quarterly.

The Administration series provides information about Michigan RCAR's internal organization, mainly since the mid-1980s. The minutes from Policy Council and Director's Reports contain yearly summations of the group's activities, and give some sense how priorities were set and activities were planned. The "Policy Council and Affiliated Pro-choice Group Lists" folder provides information about the founding of the Michigan chapter of RCAR in 1975.
