Mental Health Matters: QPR Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Workshop

Presented by Consuelo Click-Clopeland, Assistant Director of Student Counseling

A Center for Teaching and Learning event

Description: QPR Suicide Gatekeeper Certification equips participants with a practical intervention model, Question-Persuade-Refer, that can be used to provide life-saving crisis support to individuals who may be considering suicide. In the state of Alabama, suicide is the 3rd leading cause of death for ages 15 – 24. This workshop is facilitated by nationally certified trainers. This workshop also counts toward requirements for the UAB Cares Mental Health Advocate Level 1 Badge and employees may receive My Health Rewards for completing the course.

Please Note: This workshop is designed for current UAB teaching faculty, instructors of record, academic advisors, and other student-facing staff members. Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars are invited to attend the CTL LIFT series workshops instead.

Total CTL Point Value: 10,000 pts.
