About WRAP

Mental Health Recovery, including Wellness Recovery Action Planning, is the result of Mary Ellen Copeland’s search for ways she could live a life filled with hope and meaning and not be known only by her mental health diagnosis. She reached out to others who had or still lived with mental health challenges.  WRAP came out of her efforts to document the ideas and techniques they used to move into lives filled with hopes, joys, and purpose.

WRAP is …

The Wellness Recovery Action Plan® or WRAP®, is a self-designed prevention and wellness process that anyone can use to get well, stay well and make their life the way they want it to be. It was developed in 1997 by a group of people who were searching for ways to overcome their own mental health issues and move on to fulfilling their life dreams and goals.  It is now used extensively by people in all kinds of circumstances, and by health care and mental health systems all over the world to address all kinds of physical, mental health and life issues.

WRAP has been studied extensively in rigorous research projects and is listed in the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices.
