Improving the lives of youth and families through research and innovation on the Wraparound process.

ABOUT US

The Wraparound Evaluation and Research Team (WERT) at the University of Washington helps states and local systems of care implement and evaluate the effectiveness of Wraparound care coordination. WERT also produces novel research related to Wraparound and promotes communication among providers, system leaders, researchers, youth and families, and others.

We are currently gauging interest from potential pilot sites that may want to help complete development of SMART-Wrap, a text-based system to assess fidelity, engagement, and outcomes for youth and caregivers enrolled in Wraparound and other care coordination models. Learn more here!
