Most recovery programs are very rigid and to not have much give to them. The WRAP program is just the opposite. It allows each patient to recover at their own rate and using the best resources available to them.
The flexibility that the WRAP program allows each patient to have helps to reinforce the idea of self-management recovery. This is so important is giving each patient the responsibility for their own recovery. Empowering each patient to design and implement their own recovery helps to ensure that they will follow through and be successful in recovering.
