Description

Are you concerned about someone's mental health but you aren't sure how to help?

Suicidal thoughts are more common than people realize, with suicide being the 10th leading cause of death in the United States.

Retriever Integrated Health is offering a new 1-hour training option for supporting people who experience suicidal thoughts.

The Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) Suicide Prevention Training is an evidence-based program that will help you learn the signs that someone might be thinking about suicide, how to talk to them about their mental health, and how to refer them to a mental health professional to get help and support. With these skills, YOU have the power to help save a life.

Please join Retriever Integrated Health in-person for QPR on Wednesday, October 18, 2023 from 2 p.m. to 3 p.m.  Seats are limited, so register early!  Please email shecht@umbc.edu with questions.
