Wellness Recovery Action Planning - The Self Management Tool

So we have covered the 5 key concepts of WRAP - the foundations of Recovery : Hope, Personal Responsibility, Education, Self Advocacy and Support.  Now we move onto the body of WRAP.  Remember this is just an introduction to WRAP - I won't be going into great detail.  WRAP is best facilitated in a group setting, and shoud always be delivered by peer facilitators - individuals who use WRAP within their own lives and can demonstrate how it helps them maintain wellness and manage illness.  here in Scotland the Scottish Recovery Network www.scottishrecovery.net have issued this statement:

"We endorse WRAP as a powerful tool for promoting wellness and recovery and we adhere to its underlying values and principles, as described by the Copeland Centre.  we believe WRAP is best shared in group settings and that sessions should be led by a trained facilitator."

In Scotland SRN have developed a Quality Assurance Scheme to ensure that WRAP is delivered to a high standard.  I am proud to say that I am a SRN Quality Accredited WRAP Facilitator.
