Description
The new Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) Facilitator Manual, Updated Edition is now available. This beautiful spiral-bound manual is the cornerstone of the evidence-based practice of WRAP and the first update since 2012. The manual gives step-by-step instructions for the evidence-based 8-week peer group model of WRAP Seminar I. It also includes agendas for other lengths of time—all totaling 16 hours of facilitation.
This manualized, non-scripted program is based on years of research experience and the new edition has been reviewed and approved by one of WRAP’s originators and the original author of the Facilitator Training Manual: Mental Health Recovery Including Wellness Recovery Action Plan Curriculum, by Mary Ellen Copeland, PhD.
This manual presents an approach that is complementary to, but not a replacement for, other behavioral health treatment protocols. The order of WRAP never changes, but session timelines, activities, and recovery topics can be easily adapted to meet differing participant and organizational needs. As a reminder, participation in WRAP should always be voluntary, and it is highly recommended that Facilitators attend a Refresher every 2 years to ensure fidelity to the model and topic-specific information (e.g., certifying to facilitate WRAP Seminar I virtually, working with justice-involved populations, working with youth).
Note: Only Certified WRAP Facilitators can purchase and use the manual—proof of certification is required. For information about becoming a Certified WRAP Facilitator, see our Seminars and Trainings page. If you need to purchase on behalf of an organization or need to update your customer account to reflect your active Co-Facilitator status, please contact us for assistance. We are happy to help!
