Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR Training)


What is QPR Training?

Mental Health Emergency Trainings

Just as CPR helps anyone save a life in a medical emergency, QPR is a simple educational program that teaches ordinary citizens how to recognize a mental health emergency and get a person at-risk the help they need.

Learn To Save A Life with Certified QPR Gatekeepers

In QPR trainings, certified QPR Gatekeeper Instructors teach the three steps anyone can learn to help prevent suicide: Question, Persuade, and Refer. In just 90 minutes, you can learn to save a life.

QPR Training Audience & Goals

Who Can Attend the QPR Training Program?

The more people trained in QPR, the more lives are saved. This can be viewed as a bystander-intervention program, but teams such as teachers, coaches, social service providers, company leadership, and church groups can benefit from getting this training.

What are the Goals of the QPR Training Program?

The goals of QPR Gatekeeper Training include:

  • Educating participants on the myths and facts associated with suicide
  • The warning signs of suicide and contributing causes
  • How to Question, Persuade, and Refer someone who may be suicidal
  • Sharing resources available to help someone in crisis
