Suicide Prevention Training

To help students, staff, and faculty members respond to distressed students the University Counseling Center offers a QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) training.  QPR will train you to:

  •  identify the warning signs of depressed or distressed students
  •  learn how to engage these students
  •  refer them to the appropriate campus resrouces

We offer two FREE training options:

1) In-person training:  a 2 hour session, where a certified QPR instructor from CrisisLink trains participants face-to-face.

2) Online training:  a 1-1.5 hour session, where the participant obtains an access code by emailing uccprog@gwu.edu with his or her name and status at GW (i.e., student, faculty, or staff). 

If interested, please direct questions to 202-994-5300.
