“We strive to keep children and adolescents in their communities, in school and out of trouble. Wraparound values are at the heart of every OPC plan of care. These are based on new concepts; in fact they have been used successfully in models around the country. The values of Wraparound respect the voice of the family and their advocates throughout the entire care process. Plans created with the family are individualized, community and strength based, outcome focused and culturally competent.OPC offers unconditional care to families, which means that a plan of care will be changed and readdressed as often as necessary to help a family succeed. These plans are flexibly funded so that they can be changed when needed and not according to artificial deadlines.The goal is to keep the process team-driven so the entire child and family team can support the family in reaching their vision, while helping the child and family meet needs with natural supports instead of services when possible. This achieved through partnerships and integration with community resources, whereby families can be helped to achieve independence and the ability to link to their own services and community organizations when needed.”
