QPR Training in Suicide Prevention
Just like CPR is for physical emergencies, QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) is an emergency response that can save lives during a mental health crisis.
UNC-Chapel Hill is offering students, faculty and staff free opportunities to be QPR trained. You will receive a certificate upon completing the training.
Thank you for being a part of the community of care.
