“…A family's cultural context also influences its adaptive systems (Theron & Theron, 2013). YAP's holistic service approach considers attributes of the children themselves, family aspects, and characteristics of their broader social environments (Bergquist, 2013;Luthar et al, 2000, p. 3;Yohannan, Carlson, Shepherd, & Batsche-McKenzie, 2017). YAP's philosophy and practices coincide with that of child welfare leaders who champion comprehensive and coordinated services for vulnerable youth and families that both reduce modifiable risk factors and promote protective factors (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2014).…”

Youth in marginalized situations worldwide face similar challenges threatening their wellbeing. Strength-based, individually tailored community-based services that wrap around youth and families aid in promoting resilience, that is, the ability to thrive in the face of adversity. For more than 40 years, Youth Advocate Programs, Inc. (YAP) has provided such services to empower youth with complex challenges to live productively within their home environments by utilizing a blended Wraparound Advocate Service Model. In this article, a team of practitioners explores the basis, implementation, research base, and future application of YAP's dual-prong service model in building resilience.

“…Within the context of family wraparound services, culturally competent practices involve tailoring services to address the needs, priorities, and perspectives of individuals and groups that may differ according to ethnicity, race, socioeconomic status, religion, sexual orientation, and other characteristics (Palmer et al., ; Yohannan, Carlson, Shepherd, & Batsche‐McKenzie, ). It is possible that, in this study, our measure of cultural competence was not sufficient in assessing this multidimensional construct.…”

Individuals who report everyday experiences of discrimination are at heightened risk for adverse health outcomes and tend to report underutilization of health services. Systems of care (SOCs) have the potential to engage members of minority groups and to reduce health disparities. We examined the service‐related experiences of predominantly Latinx caregivers enrolled in a SOC for their children with severe psychological health needs. We used independent samples t‐tests and regression analyses to compare relations among service access, perceived service characteristics, and caregiver stress according to whether caregivers reported frequent or infrequent discrimination. The frequent discrimination group scored significantly higher on dimensions of stress and had greater dosage than the infrequent group. There were no differences in relations between service characteristics and outcomes by group. Findings indicated important differences in the service‐related experiences and outcomes of caregivers who reported frequent and infrequent discrimination. We discuss limitations and implications.

“…Several studies included less common determinations of the empirical basis of the fidelity approach. One study examined the extent to which fidelity measures identify racial disparities in treatment delivery outcomes (e.g., attrition; Yohannan et al, 2017). Two studies examined the relationship between fidelity ratings and treatment and clinical outcomes.…”

“…Further, the methods by which researchers evaluated their fidelity approaches varied substantially, and only a few examined the relationship with outcomes. With a few notable exceptions (e.g., Yohannan et al, 2017), researchers provided limited justification about the rationale for choosing the various strategies to determine empirical support for the fidelity tool or approach. In summary, there are few empirically validated approaches to determine fidelity that are used in real-world settings and most strategies rely on fidelity determinations by outside experts.…”

Practical approaches towards fidelity measurement are critical for large-scale uptake of evidence-based practices (EBPs). This descriptive review summarizes approaches to evaluation of EBP fidelity that are empirically tested and implemented in "real-world" settings. The systematic literature search covered a 30-year period and included published papers describing treatment fidelity strategies for psychosocial interventions. Characterization of articles included "scientificempirical," "practical-empirical," or "practical non-empirical." Articles characterized as "practical-empirical" were the focus of the review. Twenty-five articles met inclusion criteria for "practical empirical." These articles were coded for fidelity data collection methods, the source of fidelity information, who arbitrates or determines fidelity, if the approach is at the practice or program level, if the approach is for a specific EBP or is generic, and if fidelity is measured at the individual practitioner versus team level. The type of empirical evidence provided and the extensiveness of fidelity domains assessed was characterized for each study. Results indicated a wide variety of fidelity measurement approaches. Most commonly, outside experts assessed treatment fidelity. Half of the approaches examined fidelity at the practice level and half at the broader program level. A similar ratio examined fidelity at the individual practitioner level compared with the team level. Most approaches were specific to particular interventions. The vast majority focus on the adherence subdomain of fidelity. To date, there is no single predominant approach to fidelity assessment in real-world settings.
