When Rotarians and friends talk about Behavioral and Mental Health they often ask, "What Can I Do?"
Suicide prevention is one of the driving forces of our District's Mental Health Initiatives Action Group.
As CPR is for the heart, QPR is for the mind. What is QPR? It's an acronym for Question, Persuade and Refer. QPR trains you on:
- Recognizing suicide warning signs
- Ways to initiate conversation
- Methods of providing help and hope
The Group invites you to participate in training that will empower you to assist a friend or family member with suicidal thoughts. September is the month for global awareness on Suicide Prevention.
Your Action Group has organized face-to-face classes throughout San Diego County. These classes are open to all - Rotarians, family, friends and neighbors.
