Our Mission
Saving lives by providing depression and suicide prevention awareness, programs, and resources throughout Hampton Roads, Southeastern Virginia, and beyond.
YOU can save a life when you ask directly about suicide and offer support.
Just like with CPR, you can become a confident first responder with Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) training. Anyone can learn what to say and save a life.
“The training has made me confident in my ability to talk to friends and people who come into our center about suicide and mental health”
— safeTALK Program Attendee
“Excellent! This topic is so taboo — this course reduced my aversion to saying the word, much less talking or asking about it. This training gave me the tools to overcome these prejudices.”
— Question, Persuade, Refer (QPR) Program Attendee
