Question, Persuade, and Refer Training for Veterans
September 9, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT

COSA invites you to attend a FREE Question, Persuade, and Refer training for veterans, military members, and families.
Did you know that Alabama has one of the highest rates of suicide among veterans and military members? If you want to learn how to help, this training is for you.
Question, Persuade, and Refer: The 3 simple moves anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. In this training, community members will learn:
• How to identify the warning signs and risk factors of suicide?
• How to ask the suicide question and persuade a suicidal person to not end their life?
• How to appropriately refer a suicidal person to behavioral healthcare professionals.
Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to help someone in crisis seek the support they need.
For questions, contact Shavon Mose at sm***@*******dd.org or 334-262-1629.
