World Association for Psychosocial RehabilitationAustralian Branch

WAPR is an international non-government organisation, composed of interdisciplinary and lived experience mental health professionals, including peer workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, social educators, community rehabilitation workers and psychosocial recovery coaches (NDIS).

WAPR Australia has been established to promote a regional focus on psychosocial rehabilitation, and is inclusive of people who have lived experience as mental health service users and family members and/or carers.

WAPR Australia members believe there is a pressing need to re-position psychosocial rehabilitation as an essential knowledge base and set of technical skills within recovery-informed services. We want to get people more interested in psychosocial rehabilitation, and to see it as part of the core work of mental health services.
