The Stepping Strong Injury Prevention Program is offering free, practical, evidence-based suicide prevention training sessions to Brigham and Women’s Hospital staff. The goal with this educational offering is to raise awareness about suicide prevention—a particularly timely topic due to the negative impacts of the pandemic, workforce burnout, and racial injustice.

“QPR” stand for Question, Persuade, Refer: a concrete set of strategies to approach someone who is showing suicide warning signs. As a QPR-trained gatekeeper, training participants will learn how to recognize the warning signs of suicide, know how to offer hope, and know how to get help and save a life.
