Collaboration Between Youth Partners and Family Partners in Wraparound

In keeping with the theme of this month’s consultation, we want to remind you of these two publications we produced last year. The practice brief describes how family partners and youth partners can collaborate in a synergistic way, some common challenges they might face, and how these challenges can be addressed. The study guide provides some practice vignettes that present common challenges, together with suggestions about productive strategies for managing the challenges.
