Wellness Recovery Action Plan By Mary Ellen Copland It was developed by a group of people who have a lived experience of mental health; people who were searching for ways to resolve issues that had been troubling them for a long time. WRAP is a self-designed plan for staying well and for helping you to feel better when you are not feeling well, to increase personal responsibility, and to improve your quality of life. WRAP involves listing your personal resources, your Wellness Tools, and then using those resources to develop Action Plans to use in specific situations which are determined by you. WRAP is adaptable to any situation. WRAP also includes a Crisis Plan. We can help you creating your own W.R.A.P. in a free ten week course, call us for more information. Alternatives to Suicide Tuesdays 12:45-1:45 and Saturday 11:30-1:30 As a community we have found strength in coming together to talk about many 'taboo' topics and to support one another in our times of greatest distress. Our collective wisdom and individual stories have taught us that the space to come together in this way can be powerful and healing. It is out of this work and learning that the Alternatives to Suicide approach was born. 209 Shrewsbury St (across from East Park), Worcester MA 01604 (Bus 15)
