Help Us Complete SMART-Wrap Development!

March 18, 2025 | NWI

The Short Message Assisted Responsive Treatment for Wraparound (SMART-Wrap) system is a text based system to assess fidelity, engagement, and outcomes for youth and caregivers enrolled in Wraparound and other care coordination models. SMART-Wrap aims to be efficient and low-burden by sending caregivers and older youth participating in Wraparound two- to four-item text-based surveys. The goal is to improve response rates and help Wraparound initiatives get and use “real-time” data, so they can be more responsive to the needs of families

SMART-Wrap will be ready for pilot testing later this year. To get to an effective and usable system for families and providers alike, see our call for pilot sites. We are seeking Wraparound providers, systems, and youth/caregivers with lived experience who can give a final review of proposed items and participate in focus groups. Organizations that participate will receive discounts on future SMART-Wrap license fees, and all who participate will receive honoraria. If you have any questions, email the UW Wraparound Evaluation and Research Team at wrapeval@uw.edu.
