Throughout the country, research shows that the wraparound process does more for children than basic child welfare services alone. According to numerous independent studies, the majority of youths in welfare programs that interacted with Ascent move on to less restrictive environments and are significantly less likely to engage in illegal or delinquent behavior.

Ascent's Wraparound Services
Ascent focuses on youth who are at risk of being placed out-of-home or in an alternative school. Our mission is to bring hope where it has been lost. Services are available to ages 5-20 who are dealing with complex social, behavioral or mental health issues.
Our process is simple. We incorporate family members and coordinate with organizations in the community that can have a positive impact on the youth and ultimately meet the family’s desires.
