About this event

  • 2 hours

This training is open to community members in Oregon - primarily the Portland Metro Area.

Lines for Life is proud to offer this free 2-hour training virtually to community members as part of our mission to prevent suicide and promote mental wellness.

QPR is an evidence-based suicide prevention curriculum that teaches community members to:

  • Recognize someone at risk
  • Ask a person about thoughts of suicide
  • Support a person in seeking help
  • Offer hope

In order to participate in this training, you will need to have access to technology that allows for you to join a Zoom meeting. We request that you have the ability to have your video on during this training, but if you are unable to have video you can still participate.

If you have any questions, please contact the community training team at QPR@linesforlife.org.

Our team will send you an email 24 hours before the training is scheduled to occur with critical information, including the Zoom link. This email will come from QPR@linesforlife.org. Be sure to check your junk folder!

Why do I need to provide an emergency contact?

Material covered in this training includes discussion about suicide and mental health, which we recognize can be sensitive topics. Safety is a priority for all audience members during our training, so we ask for an emergency contact as part of our safety protocol.

Certification remains active for 1 year from the date you were trained.
