Friends of the Children – Charlotte collaborated with our Wraparound program to support Simone and her family

Simone loves to be outdoors and active; a trip to a park or cheerleading are her favorites. She lives with her parents and older brother. Her family recently relocated to a new neighborhood in Charlotte. Simone’s biggest struggle is emotional and behavior regulation, she was frequently disrupting class and in trouble at school. Her behavior was so challenging that she attended a day treatment center to address the cause. She developed coping mechanisms and improved behavior regulation.

 

Simone is part of the Friends of the Children – Charlotte program and participates in our High-Fidelity Wraparound program. Both programs have been preparing Simone and her family for the transition back into regular school. They have also connected with her school-based therapist to work toward positive behavior development. Simone enjoys working with her mentor on and the social aspect of group work with her peers in the Friends of the Children program.

 

‘Without the collaboration of Friends of the Children and Wraparound it would have taken much longer for Simone to be ready to return to school – we are grateful for their support.’ ~ Simone’s parents.
