Recognize someone in crisis
Review the risk of suicide
Reach out and offer support
Apply a suicide intervention model
Link people with community resources

About QPR:

We were recently notified that due to school policy, we will not be allowed to hold our QPR Training on March 17th at SFCC. We are working with the college to reschedule, and will message you when that date is set. At that time, we will cancel this event and open a new registration for participants.

Thank you for your patience! The health and safety of our community is always our priority :)

"It (ASIST) delivered as promised. I didn’t think I would come away with any useful tools, but learned a wealth of knowledge. Also, because of the way it was taught, I feel confident that I have the new skills and also that I will not forget them. The trainers were excellent. Thank you!" - Attendee

"This is an excellent training for anyone who works with people. All people, all ages, all socio-economic levels, can be at risk for depression and suicidal thinking. This great training gives you the tools to be able to comfortably engage someone in a conversation that will lead them to get the help they need. Medical professionals, coaches, parents, youth pastors and workers, Scout leaders, teachers, elder caregivers - anyone can learn good skills from this excellent training." - Jan Bassier, Attendee
