YOUTH AND FAMILIES RECEIVING SERVICES IN OUR WRAPAROUND (OR "FULL SERVICE PARTNERSHIP") PROGRAM ARE RECOGNIZED AS HAVING SOME OF THE MOST COMPLEX BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SYSTEM NEEDS, WHICH REQUIRES THE SUPPORT OF A MULTIDISCIPLINARY TEAM THAT OPERATES 24/7. TO IMPROVE THE CLIMATE AND ACHIEVEMENT OF SCHOOLS IN SAN FRANCISCO, EDGEWOOD-SCHOOL BASED PROGRAMS WORK WITH HIGH-NEEDS SCHOOLS TO BUILD CAPACITY- THE CAPACITY OF TEACHERS TO HANDLE BEHAVIORAL ISSUES WHEN THEY ARISE, THE CAPACITY OF FAMILIES TO PROVIDE THE SUPPORT THEIR CHILDREN NEED TO SUCCEED, AND THE CAPACITY OF CHILDREN TO DEAL WITH ISSUES THAT MAY BE IMPEDING THEIR ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL PROGRESS.
