Copper Shores Outreach & Education, in conjunction with Keweenaw Support 4 Health Minds, is hosting free suicide prevention training on Wednesday, May 15, 2024 from 4 to 5:30 p.m. at the Ojibwa Community Library. The event is provided at no cost to the public.

The training is called Question, Persuade, and Refer (QPR). 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. These skills can empower someone to save a life.
