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.

Join Retriever Integrated Health virtually for QPR on Tuesday, November 5, 2024 from 12 - 1 p.m.

Please RSVP here and a link for the workshop will be sent via Google Calendar Invite approximately 1 week prior to the event. Please email Jay Coughlin with questions at jcoughl1@umbc.edu.
