QPR teaches us to recognize the warning signs of a suicidal crisis and connecting someone in crisis with helping resources. This workshop covers 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help support someone who is thinking about suicide:
Having a conversation about suicide
Offering hope
Connecting someone to resources.
QPR is appropriate for any adult interested in learning how they can be part of reducing suicide in their community. Register for your spot with the link below.
