QPR Gatekeeper training is a 90 minute training by a WNY Rural Area Health Education Center Certified Trainer. There is NO cost to the training. QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — 3 steps anyone 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 help.

Each participant will leave with a small booklet containing information on how to save a life, the ability to recognize signs of crisis and the confidence to support the person towards appropriate help.

Any Geneseo student is invited to participate!
