Agricultural Community QPR for Farmers and Farm Families

Farmers and farm families have experienced increasing pressure resulting in high levels of stress, mental health issues, and suicide. The Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) training teaches laypeople and professionals to recognize and respond to mental health crises. QPR for Farmers and Farm Families is specially tailored to the agricultural community.  

To attend this training participants must be 18 years of age or older.  

In this 1.5-hour QPR training, we will provide: 

– Information on the unique challenges farmers face that can lead to stress, depression, and suicide. 

– Examples implementing each QPR component with someone at risk for suicide. 

– Information on how to help someone at risk of suicide.  

Registration spots are limited, so please only register if you can attend the event. No recording of this training will be available.
