Taking Action:  A Mental Health Recovery Self-Help Educational Program

     Before the development of Wellness Recovery Action Planning (WRAP), there was an earlier initiative known as "Taking Action: A Mental Health Recovery Self-Help Educational Program." This program laid the groundwork for empowering individuals to take charge of their own mental health recovery by providing practical tools and educational resources. It emphasized self-help strategies and personal responsibility, which were foundational concepts later incorporated into WRAP.

     Taking Action is a self-care and recovery educational program developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under contract with Mary Ellen Copeland, PhD. This program is designed to be used by state, county, and local behavioral health delivery systems; for-profit and not-for-profit organizations; volunteer groups; support groups; peer support groups; and peer-run programs.
