NAMI offers workshop on mental and financial wellness

NAMI National Alliance on Mental Illness Wood County

NAMI Wood County has a variety of programming throughout the year that is free and available to all Wood County residents.

The Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP) Workshop is free of charge, a self-designed, course on identifying your personal wellness tools. WRAP was developed by Mary Ann Copeland. Your WRAP program is designed by you in practical, day-to-day terms, and holds the key to getting and staying well.
