Children and Family Services has adopted the Wraparound Process as the philosophical base for the overall Foster Care service delivery system, including Independent Living Programming. The following is an outline of the values, principles and beliefs of the Wraparound Process:

• Unconditional commitment to working with families and children (youth) is provided.

• Families (youth) are full and active partners in the process.

• Services are culturally responsive.

• This is a team driven process.

• Services focus on strengths and competencies of families (youth), not on deficiencies and problems.

• Service plans are outcome based.

• Services and plans are individualized to meet the needs of families and children (youth)

• Resources and supports, both in and out of the family are utilized for solutions.

• People are the greatest resource to one another.

 

Regional Coordinators will be active members of the Child and Family Team for all youth they are working with.  The Single Plan of Care Document will include needs, goals and tasks related to Independent Living, and will serve as the Chafee Plan.
