What is Wraparound?
Wraparound is . . . a philosophy of care that includes a definable planning process involving the child and family that results in a unique set of community services and natural supports individualized for that child and family to achieve a positive set of outcomes.
WraparoundEssential Elements Community-Based Individualized, strengths-based, needs-driven Culturally competent Families as full and active partners Team process Flexibility Balance of resources Unconditional commitment Collaborative process results in plan Measurable outcomes monitored
Goldman & Burns, 1999
Wraparound Values:
Strengths-based:
Building on people’s strengths helps reduce or cope better with needs…it also helps team members feel hope
Wraparound Values:
Family is a full participant in planning…
EMPOWERING PARENTS
“The people who the plan affects
most should have the most ownership of
it”…
Lucille Eber, The Art and Science of Wraparound
Wraparound Values:
Culturally Competent:
Make sure there is someone at the table that the family can relate to
Wraparound Values:Needs-driven:
By assessing the needs carefully, we can make more effective plans
Avoid the “categorical approach”, i.e. all kids with ADHD need this service…
Wraparound Values:
Individualized Planning:
Unique to the child/family to really meet their needs
Avoid “cookie cutter” approaches
Wraparound Values:
Find Natural Supports!
Reduce reliance on formal (paid for) support and help empower the family
Examples of Natural Supports Colleagues Friends Extended Family Neighbors Coaches Clergy
Bus Drivers Babysitters/
childcare providers
School Custodian Crossing Guard Classmates
Service Coordination or Wraparound Facilitation (case management)
The “hub” of the Wraparound Wheel for the entire Team!
Wraparound Values:
Key Ideas• The team members represent strengths,
needs and choices of the youth and family• Natural support persons are important
team members to ensure cultural fit, independence and sustainable change over time
• The team focuses on needs identified and prioritized by the family, youth and teachers
• The family feels like it is their team and their meeting instead of feeling like they are attending a meeting a system is having about them!
So how do we start this process?!
STEP 1: Involving the Family
STEP 2: Building a Service Team
STEP 3: Conducting Service Team Meetings
Steps for Developing a Wraparound Plan
Step 1: Initial Conversations (story)Step 2: Start Meeting with StrengthsStep 3: Develop a Mission StatementStep 4: Identify Needs across DomainsStep 5: Prioritize NeedsStep 6: Develop ActionsStep 7: Assign Tasks/Solicit CommitmentsStep 8: Document the Plan: Evaluate, Refine,
Monitor Transition, & Celebrate Successes
Examples of meeting rules We only share information that is useful
for productive problem solving Everyone’s voice is valued and
respected; everyone’s opinion counts We will be supportive rather than
judgmental No put downs or interruptions We will monitor each other to remain
strength-based
Other rules…
The family chooses what information about them is shared at meetings
All team discussions will be considered confidential
