Apply for Family Support Partner

Wraparound is a family-driven, youth guided process that uses the family’s strengths as well as their supports to create a plan to meet the family’s needs and create hope. The High Fidelity Wraparound model aims to achieve positive outcomes by providing a structured, creative and individualized team planning process that, compared to traditional treatment planning, results in plans that are more effective and more relevant to the child and family. Additionally, wraparound plans are more holistic than traditional care plans in that they address the needs of the youth within the context of the broader family unit and are also designed to address a range of life areas. Through the team-supported planning and implementation process, wraparound also aims to increase the problem-solving skills, coping skills, self-efficacy and a social support network of young people and their family. The ultimate goal is to help youth develop and maintain positive connections within their communities, achieve in school, enjoy health and wellbeing, have friends and successfully live with families. The Family Support Partner is a member of the High Fidelity Wraparound team with lived experience, and ideally has experience as a caregiver of a youth with behavior health challenges. They add value to the team through their personal experience and ability to empathize with the family. Family Support Partners help the family navigate uncomfortable environments, help a family identify and engage natural supports while building skills and increasing their self-efficacy. Family Support Partners can also provide assistance to groups youth and caretakers of two to eight to work on skill building.
