QPR SUICIDE PREVENTION TRAINING
(Question, Persuade, Refer)
We're pleased to partner with Mendocino County Public Health HHSA to bring this training to our community. QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) is an evidence-based suicide prevention program. The 90-minute training lead by Dr. Marvel Harrison is clear and concise and empowers all people, regardless of their background, to respond to a person in crisis until professional medical personnel are available.
This focus of getting local people certified in QPR is in response to the fact that Mendocino County experiences more than twice the state and national average for deaths by suicide. By using three straightforward steps, anyone can learn to help prevent suicide.
