White Swan High School Staff Trained in QPR

Oct 27, 2024

On Wednesday, October 22, our White Swan High School teaching staff participated in Question-Persuade-Refer (QPR), a vital suicide prevention program. During the session, staff learned to recognize the warning signs of suicide and practiced effective strategies for questioning, persuading, and referring individuals at risk to get the help they need. Participants also engaged in role plays and reflected on ways to refine their skills.

This training was a collaborative effort involving our mental health counselor, Yunuenn Garcia; our coordinator, Julie; and ESD 105's Nellie Morning Owl. Thank you to everyone who contributed to making it a success!
