QPR Training
QPR stands for Question, Persuade and Refer – the three simple steps that anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide.
People trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of suicide and how to question, persuade and refer someone to help.
QPR can be learned in the team’s “Gatekeeper” course in as little as one hour.
