As a Wraparound team member, the Parent Partner builds trusting, peer-to-peer relationships with parents and caregivers, helping them navigate complex systems, prepare for team meetings, strengthen family bonds, and find sustainable support. Through weekly meetings and by participating in Wraparound team meetings and Child and Family Team meetings, the Parent Partner helps parents/caregivers build confidence, reframe challenges, and actively engage in each Wraparound phase. Their role is vital in ensuring that the parent/caregiver's voice, values, and priorities are elevated across the four phases of Wraparound. The Parent Partner focuses on providing the parent/caregiver emotional support through shared experiences. The Parent Partner uses lived experience as a parent who has navigated child-serving systems such as child welfare, probation, behavioral or mental health, or special education to forge meaningful connections with parents and caregivers. Parent Partners are compassionate allies who provide validation, guidance, encouragement and support to parents and caregivers throughout the Wraparound process. Their own lived experience provides them with a unique lens from which to advocate, from a place of deep empathy and wisdom.
