As part of the Wellness Hub's National Public Health Week, the Intercultural Center will be hosting a Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) training at 3 p.m. April 5.
The QPR method is a brief intervention that can be taught to anyone who has contact with people at risk for suicide. Trainees are taught how to identify the warning signs and risk factors for suicide and suicidal ideation, and are then trained on how to sensitively ask if the person they are concerned about is contemplating suicide, and are taught how to connect the person to appropriate resources.
