title: Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP) in self-help and mutual support groups.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The aim of this research was to assess the relevance and impact of Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP) in group settings, as a tool for self-management and wellness planning by individuals with mental-health problems. This paper reports on the impact on participants who trained as facilitators and delivered WRAP training to others within the organizations studied.
  
  
  METHODS
  Eight WRAP facilitators took part in interviews and focus groups.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The WRAP facilitators reported a positive impact on their well-being, from learning more about recovery, developing improved self-awareness, to integrating a WRAP approach into daily life.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Delivering WRAP training to groups can make a positive contribution to the well-being of facilitators themselves. Involving people with lived experience in the delivery of WRAP groups in this setting further promoted the recovery journey of facilitators.
