 ## About WRAP and the Teaching Kitchen

[Wellness and Recovery After Psychosis (WRAP)](/departments/wellness-and-recovery-after-psychosis-wrap-program "Department of Psychiatry: Wellness and Recovery after Psychosis (WRAP) Program | Boston Medical Center (bmc.org)") is a Boston Medical Center program that is tailored for patients who are experiencing psychotic symptoms. WRAP offers a variety of services for patients to help them toward leading productive lives.

WRAP has partnered with the [Teaching Kitchen](/nourishing-our-community/teaching-kitchen "Nourishing Our Community: The Teaching Kitchen | Boston Medical Center (bmc.org)") to offer a wellness series for patients who are looking to improve their dietary patterns and physical activity.

*This program is currently offered as a research study. Enrollment is closed, but please stay tuned for future programming.*

**About This Project**

The BMC Teaching Kitchen and Wellness and Recovery After Psychosis (WRAP) Program are excited to share the Greek Yogurt Sundae and Veggie and Bean Quesadilla videos as part of a “Learning, Cooking, and Moving” collaboration made possible thanks to a generous grant from the [Sidney R. Baer, Jr. Foundation](https://www.baerfoundation.com/ "The Sidney R. Baer, Jr. Foundation (baerfoundation.com)"). These two videos were produced by [NutriLens Media LLP](https://www.linkedin.com/company/nutrilens-media/ "NutriLens Media: Overview | LinkedIn (linkedin.com)").
