QPR Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training available this spring

Purdue’s Office of the Dean of Students will offer opportunities for faculty, staff and students to attend QPR Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training sessions this spring. QPR stands for question, persuade and refer, the three steps that can assist in suicide prevention. 

During a QPR training session, instructors will present, discuss and role-play scenarios until participants feel comfortable with the material.

QPR-trained gatekeepers learn to recognize the warning signs of suicide, how to offer hope, and how to get help and save a life.

The schedule, along with instructions on how to register, for Purdue QPR Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Training sessions can be found here.
