Transitional Age Youth W.R.A.P.®
W.R.A.P.® Groups for People aged 12-26
Our Youth W.R.A.P®. groups are for people between the ages of 12 - 26 who would like to explore the process of developing their own Wellness Recovery Action Plan® (W.R.A.P.). This system was developed by people who wanted to feel better , get well, and stay well over time. Our Youth groups are inspired by revisions to the collaborative efforts by youth creating plans and sharing for other youth while working to better understand their feelings, their wellness and their lives. Groups encourage participants to identify their wellness tools, and use them to develop plans for daily living and for dealing with difficult times. Participants will be encouraged to change, grow, and adapt their W.R.A.P.® We work in groups but remember only we can create our W.R..A.P.®
What are people saying about the Study Of Mental Health Recovery Including W.R.A.P®?
“This is such an imperative part of the HAP-Y program, which aims to educate youth community members ages 16-24 in the areas of mental health, mental health stigma reduction, and mental wellness. The Crisis Center greatly appreciates being able to collaborate with you all by Waynette coming in and helping facilitate the WRAP trainings, we have been able to successfully train 52 youth in WRAP. We have heard great feedback from the participants, who state that they had never before known how to care for themselves but after the WRAP training, they have a stronger sense of self-care and know exactly how to use their WRAP plan for wellness. In addition to being able to train 52 youth in WRAP. by Waynette coming in and facilitating the WRAP trainings, it has encouraged three of the Crisis Center's staff to become WRAP facilitators. This is a huge success for the HAP-Y Program, the Crisis Center, Starvista, and all of San Mateo County.
Cost can often be a barrier for many who would benefit from such trainings, and we are so grateful to have had One New Heartbeat work with us to remove this barrier when possible. To be able to spread the word of WRAP impacts the community in such a positive way, and I am so thankful for the opportunity to be able to continue our collaboration.
Thank you so much for all your support, time, energy' and commitment in ensuring the wellness of members of our community.”
