QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer — the 3 simple steps anyone can learn to help save a life from suicide. Just as people trained in CPR and the Heimlich Maneuver help save thousands of lives each year, people trained in QPR learn how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. Each year thousands of Americans, like you, are saying "Yes" to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, or neighbor.

Learners will learn to:

• Recognize the warning signs of suicide
• Know how to offer hope
• Know how to get help and save a life

Participants will receive a Zoom link 48 hours prior to the start of the training.

Join LSF for a panel discussion on Family Service Planning Teams (FSPT)!

FSPT is a community-based, family-focused, multi-disciplinary team of professionals whose goal is to identify social supports and plan services on behalf of the families in the communities we serve. Using traditional and non-traditional therapeutic services and a variety of approaches, FSPT aims to meet the mental health and social needs of children and families. FSPT seeks to establish care coordination, streamlining the process for families who require services from more than one agency, and to keep children in the community and prevent long-term, residential treatment.

We will be joined by representatives from Camelot Community Care, Children's Home Society, and SEDNET.
