Program to help prevent suicides at BUG Fire Station

Taking one hour of your time could mean the difference in knowing how to deal with a serious public health problem.   A special program designed to help prevent suicides will be conducted in Brussels on Wednesday evening.   Kewaunee County Sheriff Matt Joski will be leading a Suicide Prevention course featuring the QPR method of "question," "persuade," and "refer."

He says people must be aware of what they can do to help prevent a possible suicide. 

 

 

Joski notes providing hope and opening up dialogue helps eliminate furthering the isolation someone may be going through.  The Suicide Prevention Program will be held at the Brussels-Union-Gardner Fire Station on County C in Brussels from 6:30 -7:30 pm on Wednesday and is open to the public, with no reservations necessary.
