Community Wraparound
Meeting needs using the power of families and communities
Some families and youth or young adults are looking for help, but they struggle with finding and using the different supports available to them. Wraparound assists youth and families with complex needs to develop a team of support and organize the help that is needed. Wraparound is a planning process that
follows a series of steps so that the youth or young adult and their family realize their hopes for a better life. With the help of a Wraparound facilitator, people who care about their long term success utilize the family’s unique strengths along with team and community strengths, to problem-solve and plan in order to wraparound targeted help to address the greatest needs of the family.
