Jenn Cusick will be facilitating an interactive overview of a WRAP (Wellness Recovery Action Plan) workshop. We will have a few group participants in the room, and you will participate right from where you are.
WRAP is a recovery program that is currently utilized by agencies all over BC. Yet, there are many people who don’t know what a WRAP group looks and feels like.
As a participant in this webinar, you will get to participate experientially (over the webinar chat feature) for this mini-WRAP session.
WRAP is a tool used by many. It has application with any demographic. WRAP groups have been run in several organizations and health authorities for both clients and staff.
Currently, in BC many service recipients AND service providers have and use a personal WRAP.
For this webinar, you will be encouraged to take off your service provider hat and engage by creating your own personal mini WRAP. You will get to participate experientially (over the webinar chat feature) for this mini-WRAP session.
We will cover:
- The Key Concepts of Recovery: Hope, Personal Responsibility, Education, Self-Advocacy and Support.
- Wellness Tools: Simple, safe and free things we can do that promote personal wellness.
- The Six Sections of WRAP:
- Daily Maintenance Plan
- Triggers
- Early Warning Signs
- When Things are Breaking Down
- Crisis Plan?
- Post Crisis Plan
This material is usually covered over 12-18 hours. We will do our best to touch a little bit on as much as we can in two sessions of 1.5hour/session.
Session 2 Goals:
- Consider various ways in which WRAP is Used - high school, university, mental health practice
- Review all 6 steps in the WRAP
- Develop an outline for your own personal Action Recovery Plan
- Identify a plan for how you will complete your own Plan and review periodically
