                                Learn a process that can change your LIFE! 
Developed in 1997, The Wellness Recovery Action Plan® or WRAP®, is an 
evidence-based, prevention and wellness process that anyone can customize 
and apply to help make life the way they want it to be. It may be used by 
people in all kinds of circumstances, and by health care and mental health 
systems across the globe to address physical, mental health and life issues.

                                “WRAP is like a universal skeleton key that 
can unlock many aspects of wellness in one’s life… learning has always been 
one of whole health wellness and recovery; or recovering our wellness. Our 
focus on Hope, Personal Responsibility, Education, Self Advocacy and Support 
as a foundation for self-directed recovery and the planning process for 
recovering our wellness encompasses our minds, body and souls.”
                                ---Matthew Federici, Executive Director of 
Copeland Center
