The Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) was originally developed by Mary Ellen Copeland and a group of mental health service users who wanted to work on their own recovery – this is what they found worked for them and what helped them recover from their mental health difficulties.
The Wellness Recovery Action Plan is a framework with which you can develop an effective approach to manage distressing symptoms and gain insight into patterns of behavior. It is a tool to help you gain more control over your problems.
Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) is a simple and powerful process for creating the life and wellness you want. With WRAP, you can:
Discover simple, safe, and effective tools to create and maintain wellness
Develop a daily plan to stay on track with your life and wellness goals
Identify what throws you off track and develop a plan to keep moving forward
Gain support and stay in control even in a crisis
The WRAP process supports you to identify the tools that keep you well and create action plans to put them into practice in your everyday life. All along the way, WRAP helps you incorporate key recovery concepts and wellness tools into your plans and your life.
WRAP has 5 key principles:
Hope: people who experience mental health difficulties get well, stay well and go on to meet their life dreams and goals.
Personal responsibility: it's up to you, with the assistance of others, to take action and do what needs to be done to keep yourself well.
Education: learning all you can about what you are experiencing so you can make good decisions about all aspects of your life.
Self-advocacy: effectively reaching out to others so that you can get what it is that you need, want and deserve to support your wellness and recovery.
Support: while working toward your wellness is up to you, receiving support from others, and giving support to others, will help you feel better and enhance the quality of your life.
