Wellness Recovery Action Plan (WRAP)

How it Works:
 WRAP begins in one-on-one mentoring sessions and grows in ongoing weekly workshops. In 8-week peer-led groups, participants create and refine personalized wellness plans designed to prevent relapse and promote long-term recovery.



Evidence-Based Model:
 WRAP is recognized by SAMHSA as an evidence-based practice and has been embraced worldwide since its first publication in 1997. The model was developed by and for people with lived experience, making peer guidance a central element.


Impact:
 WRAP empowers participants to identify their personal “wellness tools” and use them daily to improve quality of life, decrease harmful behaviors, and achieve personal goals.


Community Reach:
 WRAP is used across San Mateo County, including in programs for people experiencing homelessness, individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, and those in the criminal justice system.

Connection is key in recovery. Our hybrid community groups offer a safe, supportive space both online and in person:

Every person’s story matters, and every journey is unique. That's why we built an inclusive environment with a culture of hope, resilience, and empowerment. 

Health and

Wellness Group

Recovery is not just about sobriety—it’s about building a healthy, balanced life.

  • Group Focus:
    Our twice-weekly Health & Wellness group explores physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Participants discuss topics ranging from healing trauma to maintaining healthy relationships and building self-awareness.
  • Goals:
    Each session provides education, shared experiences, and open discussion. Together, participants learn how to nurture wellness across all areas of life: physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and beyond.
  • Schedule:
    Tuesdays & Thursdays | 4:30 PM – 5:30 PM

Criminal Justice & Realignment Support

Substance use disorder is highly prevalent in the criminal justice system. With California’s correctional realignment efforts, many individuals are now housed in county facilities and re-entry programs rather than state prisons.


VOR’s Role:

Voices of Recovery San Mateo County is contracted to provide peer-led recovery support services for justice-involved individuals. Our CEO has developed specialized WRAP groups tailored to the needs of this population and their families.


Why It Matters:

This work helps individuals in the justice system access recovery tools, reduce recidivism, and rebuild their lives in the community.
