Question-Persuade-Refer (QPR) is an evidence-based training for the general public (ages 16+). Learn how to reach out to someone who may be struggling and provide life-saving support. The training includes videos, a slideshow, and a group role play.
For 2026, we are offering this training for free quarterly on last Fridays from 12:30-2pm in the Komansky Room at The Westport Library. Bring your lunch. Coffee and snacks provided.
Please note that at least 5 attendees are required for a training to take place. We also ask you not to attend any suicide prevention training if you have been personally affected by suicide in the past 6 months.
