Question. Persuade. Refer. (QPR)

Our QPR Mission
To save lives and reduce suicidal behaviors by providing innovative, practical, and proven suicide prevention training. We believe that quality education empowers all people, regardless of their background, to make a positive difference in the life of someone they know.

What is QPR?
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, Refer – the three simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. 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.

We cannot overemphasize the need for early recognition of suicide warnings signs. Most people thinking about suicide are suffering from an diagnosed and/or untreated mental illness or substance abuse disorder for which effective treatment exists.
