Community Workshop on Suicide Prevention 

Did you know that you're much more likely to encounter someone in a mental health crisis than having a heart attack!

Each year thousands of Americans, like you are saying "YES" to saving the life of a friend, colleague, sibling, or neighbor by getting the training and knowledge that can help save a life. 

QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) is a nationally recognized training to teach people how to recognize the warning signs of a suicide crisis and how to question, persuade, and refer someone to help. 

This class is open to anyone in the community. 
Cost is $5 which includes dinner. Please reserve your seat - https://signup.com/go/aKtroUG

Veterans & their spouses are invited to join us for this workshop led by industry experts on how to ease the burden on your family when it comes to planning and preparedness for long-term care and funeral arrangements. 

Unfortunately, most people think, "I've got plenty of time" until something unexpectedly happens and your family is both emotionally devastated and financially struggling. It's true you can't know, but you can be prepared.
