Contact Julie Leep for questions and requests for accessibility-related accommodations

QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) is an evidence-based suicide prevention program where participants are empowered to make a positive difference in the lives of others. Similar to CPR, QPR provides lifesaving knowledge and skills to help someone in crisis.

One myth about suicide is that once a person decides to commit suicide, there is nothing anyone can do to stop them. The fact is, suicide is the most preventable kind of death, and almost any positive action may save a life.

Who should be trained in QPR to prevent farmer and rancher suicide?

  • Those who know, love and care for them….family and friends
  • Medical providers, including dentists
  • Bankers or financial counselors
  • Veterinarians
  • Farm equipment and supply outlets, pesticide/chemical salespersons

Please note: Every person attending QPR needs to register separately.

**If you are unable to attend this training, please contact Julie or Cassie as soon as possible. 

QPR is for anyone 16 and older.
