Training superintendents and foremen on how to manage and respond to employees who may be struggling is the most direct way to make a difference in your workforce. There are a variety of resources available.

To set up a QPR training for your superintendents and foremen, contact the Utah Suicide Prevention Coalition at: info.suicideprevention@gmail.com. Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) - Just as people trained in CPR 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.

You can also learn more about the QPR Institute here: qprinstitute.com.
