Summary

This study is an optimization study to evaluate how a wraparound program for youth who have been injured by violence helps to change violence related attitudes and beliefs, change individual risk factors for violence and reduce the risk of future injury due to violence. Wraparound care involves linking the youth with a support worker who will work with the youth to develop positive support networks and help them link with services that address risk factors towards future violence.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Wraparound care

Wraparound care starts by linking an individual with a support worker who works with them to address risk factors and empower the individual to make positive choices. It not only includes connecting the youth with existing community resources such as education, employment, cultural services and substance counselling, it also helps build problem-solving skills, coping skills, and self-efficacy of the youth and family members. The support worker provides mentorship to the youth. Mentorship both teaches and emulates appropriate behaviours with respect to attitudes and behaviours associated with violence.
