The Tri-Town area Public Health Nurses along with the Plymouth County Suicide Prevention Coalition, invite you to a free training class titled QPR, (Question, Persuade, Refer).
This public event will be held on Wednesday, December 12at the Marion Music Hall, 164 Front Street, Marion from 6 pm – 8 pm.
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer; it is a basic training class that teaches you 3 simple steps you can learn to help save a life from suicide. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to get help.
Invited guests are members from the Plymouth County Suicide Prevention Coalition, and Jennie M Babcock, Chair of the Coalition, will be the instructor.
Please join us on this evening for a night of important information and resource information that you can use to make our communities healthier and stronger.
