Free QPR Training Class April 11

QPR Training Question, Persuade, Refer mission “is to reduce suicidal behaviors and save lives by providing innovative, practical and proven suicide prevention training. The signs of crisis are all around us. We believe that quality education empowers all people, regardless of their background, to make a positive deference in the life of someone they know “.

Shelby’s Way has been trying now for 3 years to start QPR training, but Covid put things on hold not allowing us to have group settings. Now with our partnership with Dr. Melinda Moore and the Eastern Kentucky University Psychology Department we are able to start these classes. The first class is coming up on Tuesday April the 11th at the Hampton Inn on Elkhorn Road here in Lexington. Class begins at 7:00pm and will last about 45 minutes. This is a vital part of our supporters efforts to continue helping those in a crisis and to now have the tools to do so.

I get asked on a regular basis, "How can I help? How do I help someone not wanting to live any longer?" We will only take 25 students for this first session and yes we will have many more. The next class will be July 11th, 2023 where we will be focusing on a class with our sponsors, business owners, management and HR staff.

Training like this is important. Don’t miss this opportunity to serve others and help save lives and give hope. Below is more info on this class and how to register.
