QPR is a 90-minute training intended to foster a community of care by teaching individuals how to recognize the warning signs of suicide, including verbal, behavioral, and situational clues. The training provides guidelines on how to 'Question' a person about suicidal thoughts, 'Persuade' them to get help, and 'Refer' them to campus and/or local resources.  The training is both educational and experiential and includes:

• An overview of statistics regarding suicide
• Myths versus facts
• Behavioral, verbal, and situational warning signs
• Concrete tools for helping someone in distress
• Role plays in small groups to practice these skills
