Join the Johnson County Suicide Prevention Coalition during Suicide Prevention week with this evidence-based training for anyone. QPR teaches simple steps anyone can learn to save a life from suicide.
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.
The Suicide Prevention Coalition is hosting this training to raise awareness and skills in the Johnson County community in honor of National Suicide Prevention Week. This training is one in a series of six in the community. Others can be found via the organization's Eventbrite account, or by reaching out to Kathleen Ratcliff at kathleen@upstreamprevention.org. These trainings are able to be provided, in part, thanks to funds from the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration.
