SUMMARY:Free QPR Training

This training is open to parents\, educators\, healthcare professionals\, faith leaders\, business owners and any other community members interested in supporting mental health and saving lives in the community. \n  \nQPR stands for Question\, Persuade\, Refer; three simple yet powerful steps anyone can take to help someone in crisis.
