High Fidelity Wraparound

High Fidelity Wraparound (HFW) is a structured, team-based process that supports children and youth with complex behavioral health needs and their families. Grounded in family voice and choice, HFW brings together professionals, natural supports, and the family to create and implement a unique plan that builds on the family’s strengths and meets their specific needs.

Who can enroll in High Fidelity Wraparound?

Your child/youth may qualify for these services if he or she:

  • is between the ages of 4 and 20

  • is eligible for Medicaid

  • has been involved in multiple systems

  • has received a specific behavioral/mental health diagnosis

  • has social or emotional challenges that impact his/her life

Why HFW Works

HFW is more than just a service plan—it’s a way of working with families rather than for them. It increases family engagement, strengthens community ties, and empowers youth and caregivers to lead their own change. It’s proven to reduce out-of-home placements and improve long-term outcomes for youth with significant behavioral health challenges.
