Faculty on the Front Lines: The QPR Suicide Prevention Program

Thursday, April 3; 3:00-4:30 p.m.; CTLT Instructional Resource Commons

QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone for help. This 90 minute session will provide you with the skills to act—not as a counselor, but as a concerned member of the ISU community.

Facilitator:

Dr. Sandy Colbs, Director, Student Counseling Services

Panelists: QPR Trainers
