A Comparison of School-Based and Community-Based Adherence to Wraparound during Family Planning Meetings
Nordness, Philip D.
Education and Treatment of Children, v28 n3 p308-320 Aug 2005
A number of recent studies have begun to examine how the wraparound approach is adhered to during family planning meetings in community-based settings. However, no studies have compared wraparound family planning meetings across community-based and school-based settings. The purpose of this study was to examine adherence to the wrap-around process during family planning meetings across these two settings to determine if there is a difference in the participants, domains discussed, and key characteristics of wrap-around. Over the course of 9 months, observations were conducted during community-based (N = 85) and school-based (N = 109) wraparound family planning meetings. Results indicate a number of similarities and a few differences between the settings. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are discussed.
