Overview

People who experience mental health challenges no longer feel that they are sentenced to a life of chronic disability that interferes with their ability to work toward and reach their goals. Instead, by using self-help skills and strategies that complement other treatment scenarios, they are achieving levels of wellness, stability, and recovery they always hoped were possible. This recovery information is being networked across the country by the Copeland Center for Wellness and Recovery and by an ever-growing number of recovery educators through self-help publications, seminars, workshops, presentations, support groups, and the internet.
