Needham Public Services' QPR Suicide Prevention Program will be offered next on Tuesday, Nov. 27 from 7-9 p.m.
This is a free program which will provide parents and other adults with information and skills that can be implemented immediately to support a child or friend in distress. Investigate the myths surrounding suicide, explore the signs of suicide, discover the differences between suicide and self injury, and learn how to help to a person at risk.
Registration information can be found online at www.needhamma.gov/youth/2012fallprograms (see page 5).
All sessions will be facilitated by Youth Services Director Jon Mattleman (Jon can be contacted at jmattleman@needhamma.gov).
