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. A Youth Support Partner is a young adult, ages 18 to 26 years old, with personal experience participating in the system of care (mental health, special education, child welfare, juvenile justice). They provide one-on-one support or support within groups for qualified youth in order to work on skill building.
