Wraparound was established in the 1980s as an alternative to service delivery strategies that kept youth and family services in fragmented siloes, driven by professionals and often relying on costly institution-based care rather than investing in community supports. "While many states have taken Wraparound to scale, others have been more hesitant, saying it wasn't 'evidence-based.' This study should help address those concerns." "Wraparound lives up to principles we want to uphold - for example, being youth- and family-driven, strengths-based and using a team of people with a blank checkbook to 'do whatever it takes' to meet the needs of the youth and family," added Dr. Across the 17 studies, Wraparound effects were more positive for samples with higher proportions of youth of color. The study also found significantly lower overall care costs for youth in Wraparound care, due to less spending on costly out-of-home placements. Significant effects in favor of Wraparound across a range of important youth outcomes were found - including reduced out-of-home placements and improved mental health functioning and school outcomes. "Now we have clear results that support what many have seen in their own local systems of care: that Wraparound is more effective and cost-effective than traditional services." Eric Bruns, Professor of Psychiatry and senior author on the research team. "For many years, public systems have used Wraparound because it makes sense and provides families with the kind of compassionate approach, something that all families say they want and need," said Dr. Read more about the CDC’s virus prevention recommendations.Moreover, Wraparound may hold the potential for reducing disparities in outcomes for youth of color, which has long been found in mental health services.Ī team of researchers, led by Jonathan Olson, PhD, at the University of Washington Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Seattle, WA, USA, conducted a meta-analysis of 17 controlled studies, and their results, published between 19 in order to compare the effects of Wraparound to regular services in youth with SED (serious emotional disorders).If a tissue is not available, sneeze or cough into your elbow.
