A Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) facilitator training course will be taking place over five days from the 21st to the 26th of April 2017.
What is WRAP?
WRAP is a prevention and wellness process used by people to get well, stay well and improve their overall mental health and well-being. It was developed in 1997 by a group of people who were searching for ways to manage their own mental illnesses. It is now commonly used by people in many different circumstances to address physical health, mental health and other issues in life.
What does WRAP teach you?
- To find your own personal wellness tools that can help you in times of need
- Enables you to develop a list of things you can do every day to maintain your wellbeing
- To identify triggers, early warning signs and signs that things are going downhill in life
- Teaches you to use your wellness tools and develop action plans for responding at these times
- To make your own crisis plan and post crisis plan for you and others to follow if you need it
What will the course cover?
- The values and ethics of WRAP
- Facilitation skills
- Practice at speaking in public
- Practice at answering difficult questions about WRAP
- Presenting WRAP with a co-facilitator
What will it cost?
The cost of the 5-day training course will be €700. Completing the course without the manual reduces the cost to €550. The training is being subsidised by the trainers to make sure the course is affordable for all, and payment plans are available.
