Wraparound for High-risk Families with Substance Use Disorders: Examining Family, Child, and Parent Outcomes

The investigators propose a Hybrid Type 1 effectiveness-implementation quasi-experimental trial. Participants are drawn from two different communities contemporaneously. The intervention participants in one community receive a Wraparound intervention. Comparison group participants drawn from a second matched community receive treatment as usual. With this design, the investigators aim to study outcomes associated with the intervention as well as explore important facilitators and barriers associated with the implementation and other factors associated with reach / participation, engagement and acceptability. Wraparound is a structured 12-month family-driven "process" that is guided by family goals, includes a team of supports to wrap around families, and coordinates care for families. Wraparound has been primarily delivered and tested with families of older-age children with severe emotional and behavioral needs in an attempt to prevent residential placement. The investigators are interested in testing the model in a sample of families (n=160) affected by substance use disorders who have children placed outside the home or are at risk of such placement. The investigators hypothesize that families receiving Wraparound will obtain better parenting and family functioning outcomes (primary outcome); child safety, permanency, and well-being; and parental recovery than families receiving treatment as usual. The investigators will also explore factors associated with higher levels of engagement and outcomes, including family characteristics, referral sources and hand-off, and similarly, explore barriers and facilitators associated with engagement and/or outcomes.
