“Wraparound has always had implicit associations with various psychosocial theories (Burchard, Bruns, & Burchard, 2002; Burns, Schoenwald, Burchard, Faw, & Santos, 2000); however, until recently only preliminary efforts had been undertaken to explain in a thorough manner why the wraparound process should produce desired outcomes (Walker & Schutte, 2004). Using the foundation supplied by the specification of the principles (Bruns et al., 2004) and practice model (Walker et al., 2004) of wraparound, the National Wraparound Initiative (NWI) has proposed a more detailed theory of change to describe how and why wraparound works.”
