Both Peer Support and WRAP are about living and doing things that promote growth, recovery and wellness. By combining the two, the strategies that we discover in peer support become part of our WRAP, and the skills and strategies we discover as we learn about and use WRAP, assist us in peer support.
I have always suspected that the mental health challenges I have faced in my life, and those that affect so many other people, were actually caused by the “bad things”, or trauma, that they had experienced. This book is an adaptation of the basic WRAP program for people who recognize trauma as the cause of their mental health difficulties. It contains information and examples that are specific to addressing issues related to trauma, along with information from people like you, who are working on their wellness and recovery.
