Star View TEAMMATES
We are still here for you. We are providing services, but in response to the COVID-19 outbreak, we are transitioning to telehealth services over the phone or video for some services. Please call rather than coming to our offices.
Doing what ever it takes to keep families together
TEAMMATES is a leader in the provision of Wraparound in the Los Angeles Area. Wraparound is a unique approach to working with Severely Emotionally Disturbed (SED) youth who are in long-term placement within LA County’s Mental Health, Foster Care, or Juvenile Justice systems. Star View TEAMMATES is one of several leading Wraparound agencies in the county, working closely with Star View Community Services, a provider of community-based mental health services.
Wraparound services are designed to “do whatever it takes” to help youth and their families to stay together, achieve success, attend school, and participate in community activities. This approach combines mental health and child welfare methods in a comprehensive psychosocial rehabilitative approach. Click for more on the “Whatever it takes” approach.
