Suicide Prevention: QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) Training

September 25 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

$10

Join us at A-State for training provided by Arisa Health: QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer)

Who should attend?
Any school personnel interested in being a Gatekeeper (someone in a position to recognize a crisis and the warning signs that someone may be contemplating suicide).
QPR Mission:
To save lives and reduce suicidal behaviors by providing innovative, practical and proven suicide prevention training. We believe that quality education empowers all people, regardless of their background, to make a positive difference in the life of someone they know.
What does QPR mean? QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
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.
Note: Maximum class size is 35 people.
