A semi-parametric mixture model was fit using data on 611 children with serious emotional disturbance who participated in North Carolina's Willie-M. Program from 1995 to 2000 to identify patterns of residential restrictiveness over time. Results revealed 4 distinct restrictiveness trajectories: low/stable, high/stable, increasing, and decreasing. Correlates of trajectory group membership included age, IQ, initial behavior, and region of the state. Number of diagnoses and change in behavior did not predict group membership. Interpretation of results is guided by a consideration of the goal of wraparound systems of care to provide services and supports in community based and normalizing settings
