Program Overview
Serving Delaware and Philadelphia Counties, Elwyn’s community-based clinical wraparound services are individually designed to include multiple disciplines in an effort to address the specific and unique challenges of the child. A clinical team of behavioral health professionals, which may include a behavioral specialist, mobile therapist, therapeutic support staff, and case manager, offer families and children tools to succeed within their least-restrictive educational and living environment. The Behavior Specialist Consultant identifies behavioral goals and intervention techniques and recommends non-aversive behavioral change methods. Then, in collaboration with the family and other members of the treatment team, the Behavior Specialist Consultant designs and directs the implementation of a behavior modification intervention plan that is individualized to each child or adolescent and to the needs of the family. The Mobile Therapist provides intensive therapeutic services to children and their families at home, in school, and in other community settings. The Mobil Therapist provides support and assistance to the child and his or her family. The Therapeutic Staff Support works directly with the child and adolescent who displays a wide range of disabilities and functioning levels at homes, in schools, day care, or in their communities. This support person provides one-on-one interventions, including crisis intervention, behavior management support, emotional support, time-structured activities, and psychological rehabilitation. The Case Manager is a human services worker who is assigned to cases where there are many services involved. The Case Manager coordinates services and works with the family to identify services that may benefit the child.
