Our staff work with a wide range of partners to ensure services and supports enhance and strengthen each child’s chances for success in their home and community.

What is Wraparound

Wraparound is a strength-based approach that helps families who have children with challenging behaviors function more effectively in the community. WinGeorgia CME assists each family in building a Wraparound team comprised of people who are most important to them. The team focuses on finding services unique to each child’s needs. Based on family strengths and culture a Care Coordinator works with the family to develop an individualized plan to meet goals identified by the family. Family input is very important to this process. No plan can work unless it truly meets a family’s specific needs. Parental investment is critical to family success.

Wraparound is provided in both English and Spanish.
