QPR: Question, Persuade, Refer Suicide Prevention training
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.
QPR training is available to all student groups, faculty groups, staff groups at SUNY Purchase. Contact Counseling and Behavioral Health Services to schedule a training by calling 914-251-6390 or email cou.counseling.center@purchase.edu.
