Wraparound Services

Wraparound  uses professional staff and natural supports to literally "wrap" services around identified children and their families.  Services are provided in the family's home and community to prevent out-of-home placement.  Services also may be implemented upon a child's return home from a placement to strengthen relationships, problem-solving skills and to prevent recidivism.    Wraparound is a child-centered, strengths-based system, focusing on the child's and family's strengths as major tools.

Because each child's and family's situation is unique, an individually-tailored treatment plan is formulated to address the child's mental health needs.  This plan is designed to use community resources creatively in order to achieve the maximum  improvement in the child's function with minimum disruption  to the family unit.  The plan is developed, monitored and modified by the interagency team, which include the referring agency, Glade Run Lutheran Services, teachers or vocational training counselors, therapists, psychologists, medical and legal advisors, and most importantly , the child and family.
