“…Individualized services are ensured by a team that works in conjunction with the treated youth, their families and community supporters to provide tailored made responses to the specific needs of the treated youth (Borduin, 1994;Colvin et al, 2002;Henggeler et, al., 1997;Lewis, Nash, & Kelleher, 2003;Pullmann et. al., 2006;Toffalo, 2000). A shared feature of the different approaches and methods included in this model, express in addressing the responses to the treated youth and their families, based on trustful relations and the collaboration of formal and informal community supporters (Burns et al, 2000;Forkby, 2009;Freymond & Cameron, 2006).…”

Wraparound model refers to community-based programs designed to rehabilitate youth; characterized by multiple risk factors, through "wrapping" them with a variety of assistance agencies, first and foremost their families. The purpose of the current paper was to describe the way of implementation of the Wraparound model in Israel, named the Ma'atefet 1 , which is operated by the Juvenile Probation Service (JPS), as an alternative to out-of-home placement of convicted juvenile offenders. The paper presents an overview of the program's background, objectives and goals, as well as findings of evaluation studies designed to examine the program effectiveness, and case studies of convicted minors that participated in the program in Israel. In consistent with previous studies from different countries in the world, it was found that the program in Israel achieves its main goals, reflected in improvements in the educational, familial and mental condition of the treated youth; reducing recidivism; and preventing out-of-home placement. In light of these many advantages, we recommend policy-makers to expand the program, for the benefit of young offenders, their families and the community as a whole.

“…Significant improvement was observed in overall daily functioning, the frequency of targeted complaints, and an increased number of self-reports about individual goal attainment. Toffalo (2000) found that youths who participated in a wraparound treatment program showed improvement in targeted behaviors such as aggression, bullying, activities of daily living, financial management, and job attainment and maintenance. Similarly, Bickman, Smith, Lambert, and Andrade (2003) found that both wraparound services and intensive treatment produced improved functioning and decreased problems among youths in community-based treatment programs.…”

Family‐like professional helping relationships have the potential to alter the trajectories of young people facing significant disadvantage. This study seeks to identify the worker attributes that allow the formation of deep bonds with young people in these circumstances. Access to young people in difficult circumstances was secured via organisations that provided support to this population. Interviews about positive‐helping relationships were conducted with young people (n = 30) and support workers (n = 35) from 11 UK and 5 US not‐for‐profit organisations. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data. Three sets of worker qualities were identified and linked to how relationships change young people's trajectories in the context of adversity. This study has implications for the selection, training, and support of workers who provide support to young people facing difficult challenges underscoring the qualities needed to provide support and change young people's outcomes.
