Introducing WISe – Wraparound care with intensive services for kids and families.
Are you or your kids Medicaid-eligible and in need of intensive wraparound services? Consider WISe.
WISe is designed to surround at risk kids and their families with the intensive mental health assistance they need. WISe is highly customized for each individual and is available in home, and in convenient community settings.
Families participating in WISe work with trained professionals to help guide and drive all aspects of care, following a plan that builds on the kid’s and family’s strengths. WISe team members may include natural supports (such as family and friends) and professionals including school counselors.
Referrals for participation in the WISe program can be made by youth and their families, and from providers and community members. To refer or to request WISe services, please call 360-373-5031 and ask to be connected to the WISe Team to request a “screen”. You will then be contacted by a WISe staff member to talk about whether WISe services are right for you.
