Get Trained in QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer)
What is QPR?
There are three steps anyone can take to help prevent suicide.
Just like CPR, QPR is an emergency response to someone in crisis and can save lives. QPR is the most widely taught gatekeeper training program in the United States, and more than one million adults have been trained in classroom settings in 48 states. This 1.5-hour class is for members of the community over the age of 16 who want to learn best practices in suicide prevention.
A certificate of attendance is available for this class and will be sent after you fill out the evaluation. Register for an upcoming class:
QPR Tuesday, June 14, 1 p.m. – 2:30 p.m.
