QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) Suicide Prevention Training
Suicide prevention begins long before a crisis. It starts with noticing when someone may be struggling, reaching out with compassion, and reminding them they are not alone.
Join us at The Pillar Center for QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) Suicide Prevention Training, led by the Corewell Health Center for Wellness team. This evidence-based training equips everyday people—no mental health background required—with the skills to recognize someone in crisis and connect them with help.
Every day we encounter people carrying stories we may never fully know. Some are filled with hope, while others are hidden behind silence and pain. Through QPR, you’ll gain the confidence to recognize when someone may need support and learn how to respond in a caring, effective way.
During this training, you’ll learn how to:
- Recognize the warning signs of suicide
- Offer hope and compassionate support
- Connect someone to the appropriate resources and help save a life
Together, we can create a community where people feel seen, supported, and valued.
