WASP 10 Main Principles
1. Voice and Choice—The team helps the client identify the needs that are most important to him (voice) and focuses resources to help him meet those needs (choice) along with the requirements that parole may put on him.
2.Team-Based—The client chooses the team that will help him become proficient in the skills needed to succeed in society. This team should consist of 4-8 members with no more than 50% professional service providers.
3. Natural Supports—The family members, clergy and/or friends who share a commitment to the client’s success support him in re-entry.
4. Collaboration—Treatment providers and other resources join the team with the client to make one plan that will work for the client, parole and society as a whole.
5. Community-Based—The client is involved in the activities of his community and uses community-based services and supports.
6. Culturally Competent—Services and supports are tailored to the unique culture of each client. Family culture refers to race and ethnicity as well as family habits, preferences, beliefs, language, rituals, and dress.
7. Individualized—Each client has an individualized plan that is developed by the Team and addressed the needs prioritized by the family. The plan includes requirements of parole and treatment.
8. Strengths-Based—The plan is based on the strengths, needs, values, norms, preferences, culture, and vision of the client.
9. Unconditional Care—The client is not kicked out of wrap around because the plan isn’t working. The plan is simply adjusted until it works.
10. Outcome Based—Out come measures are identified and the plan is continually evaluated for quality and effectiveness in achieving the client’s and society’s goals.
