Description: This course is 5 intensive days of workshops that prepares participants to facilitate
WRAP classes and equips them with the skills and materials to facilitate classes in their
community and organization.
The WRAP Facilitator training provides an experiential learning environment based on
mutuality and self-determination. Participants in this course will be expected to participate in
interactive learning activities and demonstrate their own experience with WRAP.
Participants attending the course are expected to have a solid working knowledge of WRAP
and share their experiential knowledge of how WRAP can work.
Before attending the training, it is expected that you have familiarity with the different parts
of WRAP through completion of one of the following prerequisites (which must be conducted
by a WRAP Facilitator):
Copeland Center Correspondence Course
2 or 3 day Seminar I course or workshop,
8 or 12 week Seminar I group or workshop
Additionally, participants should have developed and used their own WRAP.
Spend five days with Copeland Center accredited staff learning to become a WRAP
Facilitator. This course is designed to help you become a powerful change agent as a WRAP
Facilitator. You will gain a deeper understanding of the recovery process and learn to:
work with people who have mental health challenges to discover the strengths they have
and can use to enhance their recovery;
effectively share the underlying concepts necessary to recovery - hope, personal
responsibility, education, self-advocacy, and support;
work with individuals and groups to develop a WRAP;
teach about wellness tools and strategies;
empower and motivate people to work toward recovery feeling the way they want to
feel, making their lives the way they want them to be, and moving toward meeting their life
goals; and
use interaction and presentation styles and strategies that enhance recovery.
This course models the behavior of a facilitator in a WRAP class and stresses authenticity and
unconditional high regard, as well as a strong set of values and ethics to guide your work.
