| Abstract: | This study investigated whether and which evidence-based treatment (EBT) components might generalize to youths served by the wraparound process. To examine these questions, the study used relevance mapping, an empirical methodology that compares youths in a given clinical population with participants in published randomized trials to determine who may be “coverable” by EBTs and which treatments may collectively be most applicable. In a large diverse clinical sample, youths receiving wraparound services (n = 828) were compared with youths receiving other services (n = 3,104) regarding (a) demographic and clinical profiles, (b) “coverability” by any EBTs, and (c) specific practices from those EBTs that most efficiently applied to each group. Participants in studies of EBTs matched the demographic and clinical characteristics of nearly as many youths receiving wraparound (58–59%) as those receiving non-wraparound services (61–64%). Moreover, the best-fitting solutions of relevant sets of practices were highly similar across groups. These results provide the first large-scale empirical characterization of fit between EBTs and youths receiving wraparound and suggest that these youths are well suited to benefit from clinical strategies commonly used in EBTs.
