As a Wraparound Facilitator, you can meet youth and families where they are at and play an important role in getting them where they want to be in a collaborative environment where Wraparound Facilitators have the tools, time, and training to provide excellent services in a positive team environment. Wraparound Facilitators work in homes, schools, and with other system partners to help build a network of care around each family that we serve. Wraparound is an intensive care coordination service that serves youth with complex emotional and behavioral needs who are at risk of out-of-home placement and are involved with multiple human service systems. Wraparound Facilitators lead the effort to promote youth and family voice, choice, and strengths to empower and support Youth and Family Teams to meet their goals. In this role, Wraparound Facilitators collaborate with youth, caregivers, system partners, and natural supports to plan and lead Child and Family Team meetings.

Wraparound Facilitators connect families with resources and supports, create individualized Crisis and Safety Plans, and work with the Child and Family Wraparound team to prevent out-of-home placement by coordinating services and helping youth and families remain connected to their supports in the community. On a given day in this role, you might write agendas and plan Child and Family Wraparound meetings, participate with a treatment team to provide crisis intervention to reduce the risk of hospitalization or out-of-home-placement for a youth, or partner with families by providing advocacy and support at IEP meetings, Juvenile Court hearings, assessments, and other service-related appointments. Wraparound Facilitators in the Child and Adolescent Mental Health program have monthly free in-house trainings, free clinical supervision, help with licensing exam prep, free CEU trainings, tuition reimbursement opportunities, access to Evidenced Based Practice Learning Cohorts, and a positive and supportive work environment in vibrant downtown Howell.
