TESTIMONIALS

Lifesaving impact through education

Thanks to your QPR suicide prevention training, I knew how to help my next-door neighbor when he told his wife he was going to take his life. We got him to your crisis center and he’s now getting counseling. I’m still processing that I may have actually helped save a life.

Many of our clients have been on suicide precaution while in custody and have attempted suicide and self-harm in their past. We are so grateful to receive the ASIST training to best support our clients when they are at their most vulnerable.

Boulder County, Community Justice Services team member

Had I the skills and confidence I now have through QPR and SafeTALK trainings, it would’ve been much easier...to respond to my students...I think all kinds of school staff need this training.
