Course Description:

By learning QPR, participants will learn the warning signs and risk factors to recognize when someone may be suicidal and what to do about it to potentially save a life.          QPR is equated to CPR as an early intervention that can be implemented by anyone and is not a form of counseling or treatment. QPR is an evidence-based practice.

 

Course Objectives:

1. Participants will learn to recognize warning signs and risk factors related to suicide.

2. Participants will learn how to appropriately ask someone at risk if they are thinking about suicide and what to do if the answer is yes.

3. Participants will learn how to include parents/guardians of youth who are at risk.
