The program centers on three key interventions: \n\nQuestion: Initiate a compassionate conversation to explore the individual’s thoughts and feelings about suicide.\nPersuade: Encourage the person to seek and accept professional help.\nRefer: Connect the individual with the proper resources and support services.\n\nBy becoming a gatekeeper\, you help bridge the gap between crisis and care. Given that suicide rates—especially in rural counties of Pennsylvania—exceed national averages\, every community member plays a critical role in prevention. Whether you’re a parent\, teacher\, healthcare provider\, or community leader\, QPR provides you with the knowledge and tools to make a difference. \nParticipants will gain a clear understanding of suicide prevention techniques\, be able to identify at-risk individuals\, and learn how to effectively intervene and refer individuals to appropriate resources. \nLearning Objectives \n\nRecognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis\nUnderstand the connection between suicide and substance use disorders\nLearn effective gatekeeper interventions (including questioning intent\, persuading help-seeking\, and referring to appropriate resources)\nEmpower individuals to support community suicide prevention initiatives.\n\nClick here to register \nQuestions?
