Fresno Wrap

Children’s Wraparound Program was implemented in Fresno County in March 2010. Eligible youth and families are provided with a Wraparound team to assist with maintaining the youth at home and in their community. Wraparound is a family-driven process in which family members decide on the goals that are most important to them and recruit Wraparound team members to help them accomplish these goals. Wraparound works from a team-based approach in which multiple individuals work together toward a common purpose – to improve the lives of children and families through empowerment, encouraging positive change and supporting self sufficiency.
 

Who is eligible?
Eligible youth are referred to our program through Dependency or Probation Courts. Any youth who is at risk of being removed from home and being placed in a residential program through one of the following qualify for services:
