Helps individuals learn skills and utilize tools to create and maintain wellness and to make choices that lead to healthier outcomes. Part of the process includes creating a Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) - which helps individuals discover simple, safe, and effective tools to create and maintain wellness, develop a daily plan to stay on track with life and wellness goals, and identify what throws goals off track and develop a plan to keep moving forward. This is led by trained facilitators who will also do follow-up to see if the plan needs updated at least twice a year.

Also offers the writing SMART Goals class. Here the person learns to write goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-bound. This is done by breaking down objectives into smaller, more manageable components that are easy to track and achieve. The goals can be about anything in the person's life.
