Question, Persuade, Refer Suicide Prevention Training Free for Veterinarians

May 6, 2020 — 

Iowa State University Extension and Outreach is offering additional sessions of the Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) suicide prevention training.

Each on-line program will last for one hour. Those dates and times are as follows:

  • Tuesday, May 12 at 12 p.m.
  • Wednesday, May 13 at 10 a.m.
  • Thursday, May 14 at 10 a.m.
  • Tuesday, May 19 at 12 p.m.

  • Tuesday, May 26 at 12 p.m.
  • Wednesday, May 27 at 10 a.m.
