Persuade. Refer. QPR Training DESCRIPTION:The QPR mission is to reduce suicidal behaviors and save lives by providing innovative\, practical\, and proven suicide prevention training. The signs of crisis are all around us. We believe that quality education empowers all people\, regardless of their background\, to make a positive difference in the life of someone they know.\nQPR stands for Question\, Persuade\, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. \nJust 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. \nChain of Survival or he likelihood that a victim will survive increases when each of the following four elements are connected: \n\nEarly Recognition of suicide | The sooner warning signs are detected and help sought\, the better the outcome of a suicidal crisis will be.\nEarly QPR | Asking someone about the presence of suicidal thoughts and feelings opens up a conversation that may lead to a referral for help.\nEarly intervention and referral | Referral to local resources or calling 988 for evaluation and possible referral is critical.\nEarly Advanced Life Support | As with any illness\, early detection and treatment result in better outcomes.\n\nQuestion. Persuade. Refer. Three steps anyone can learn to help prevent suicide. \nShare this:\n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://abccm-vsc.org/event/question-persuade-refer-qpr-training/ LOCATION:Fayetteville Cares Day Resource Center\, 128 S King St\, Fayetteville\, NC\, 28301\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250912T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250912T160000 DTSTAMP:20260519T084156 CREATED:20250814T182104Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250814T182819Z UID:1594-1757667600-1757692800@abccm-vsc.org SUMMARY:Mental Health First Aid Training | NCWorks Staff DESCRIPTION:Did you know that 1 in 5 people will experience a mental health challenge in their lifetime?
