QPR Suicide Prevention for Gatekeepers
March 23, 2021 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
ABOUT QPR:
Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year thousands of Americans, like you, are saying “Yes” to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, or neighbor.
KEY COMPONENTS COVERED IN TRAINING:
How to Question, Persuade and Refer someone who may be suicidal
How to get help for yourself or learn more about preventing suicide
The common causes of suicidal behavior
The warning signs of suicide
How to get help for someone in crisis
At this point, all courses are offered through a virtual platform. Thanks to the generosity of the Scott Sipple Foundation, these trainings will be free to attend. Advanced registration is required and can be done online: QPR Registration – Jana Marie Foundation
