Dictionary

Wrap-around services in the context of addiction refer to a holistic approach to treating individuals with substance use disorders that provides a range of support services to address the individual’s physical, mental, and social needs. This approach aims to address the complex and interconnected factors that contribute to addiction, such as trauma, poverty, and mental health issues, by providing a comprehensive range of services that “wrap around” the individual to support their recovery.

Wrap-around services may include medical and behavioral health treatment, housing and employment support, education and vocational training, legal and financial assistance, and other social services. The goal is to address all of the individual’s needs and provide a supportive, integrated system of care that promotes sustained recovery and improved overall health and well-being.
