QPR: Question, Persuade Refer
Our one-hour suicide prevention training, QPR: Question, Persuade, Refer, teaches participants how to recognize and respond positively to someone exhibiting the behaviors that often serve as warning signs for suicide. QPR, a nationally-recognized, evidenced-based training, helps participants identify potential suicide intent or desire, and equips them with the skills to persuade someone to accept or seek help, while connecting them with appropriate resources.
