Crisis Response training
Lawyers often encounter people in emotional pain, and the profession itself has elevated rates of depression, substance use, and suicide. Having strategies for working with others in a crisis can save lives.
QPR stands for Question, Persuade, and Refer. With simple, practical, and proven steps, QPR training is the most widely taught suicide prevention gatekeeper training in the world. The training is at no cost and approved for up to 1.6 hours of MCLE credit, including ethics.
Participants will become more comfortable and confident in broaching the sensitive subject of suicide, receive support resources, and have the opportunity to practice and discuss skills learned.
All trainings take place via Zoom. Each session is two hours long and limited to 25 participants. Attendees will receive access to online support materials to reinforce the training, complete a pre- and post-test about their confidence in discussing the topic of suicide, and can print a certificate of completion at the end of the course.
Registration will close after the session reaches the maximum number of participants.

MOLAP Director Stacy Parmer will register participants through the QPR system after they complete the course. This will give participants access to the training pre-test, post-test, follow-up support materials, and allow them to provide instructor feedback to improve the quality of the training.
