The Krasman Centre will be running WRAP groups in Alliston and Richmond Hill starting in July and August respectively.  The groups run for 8-weeks, and participants meet once a week for 2 hours.

The WRAP program involves an educational and planning process that is grounded in mental health recovery concepts such as hope, education, empowerment, self-advocacy, and interpersonal support and connection. Within a group setting, individuals explore self-help tools (eg. peer counseling, focusing exercises, relaxation & stress reduction techniques) and resources for keeping themselves well and for helping themselves feel better in difficult times.

For more information or to register, please contact us at 905-780-0491.  Registration spots are limited.
