Wraparound Care Coordination

Service description

Wraparound is a team-based planning process that supports youth and families with complex needs. It brings together friends, relatives, teachers, counselors and caseworkers who help the youth and family reach their goals. The team works with the youth and family to develop an individualized plan. Participation in Wraparound is always voluntary.

This short animated video (less than four minutes) offers a general introduction to Wraparound for children, families and others who may be learning about it for the first time.
