California Wraparound County Plan Approval and Provider Certification Portal

Welcome to the California Wraparound County Approval and Provider Certification Portal!

This Portal, developed through collaboration between CDSS and Wraparound experts, is the platform for county approval and provider certification. The Portal allows counties and providers the opportunity to demonstrate alignment with the California high-fidelity Wraparound Standards, which are the foundation of the California high-fidelity Wraparound model.

California Wraparound County Approval and Provider Certification process

The Wraparound community identified the need for a California high-fidelity Wraparound model that would be implemented across the state to promote a consistent model based on statewide Standards. This process fulfills the requirement in WIC 4096.6 and ACL/BHIN #### that counties and providers must submit a plan that demonstrates full alignment with the California Wraparound Standards.

All 58 counties submit a unified plan with the approval of the MHP, child welfare and probation departments. Each county submits one plan, including counties who are contracting with a provider.

All providers must obtain certification to be eligible to contract with a county to provide aftercare Wraparound. Providers are required to submit one unified plan, regardless of the number of locations or counties in which they operate.

All providers in the state of California are encouraged to complete the Portal certification process to provide consistency in Wraparound, including Wraparound providers that are utilizing Adoption Assistance Program funding.

To begin, register and create a profile (one per county/provider). Gather supporting documentation showing alignment with the Standards and be prepared to describe the implementation of the Standards. Further instructions and resources are in the fly-out menu.

Counties and providers must submit their plan through the Portal by 12 months from the release date of the aftercare Wraparound ACL/BHIN. Providers who are planning to contract with a county are highly encouraged to submit their plan as soon as possible to allow sufficient time for the contracting ahead of the 12-month deadline, for adjustments to organizational processes, and participating in Technical Assistance.
