The NKHS QPR Trainers and Zero Suicide Initiative Team are grateful for grants from NVRH Community Fund, Vermont Electric Co-op Foundation, and donations to help support this valuable training for residents and those employed in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Those who attend virtually from another area are asked to cover the $5 cost of the training and resource materials. If you wish, you may donate to NKHS noting your donation is for the Zero Suicide Initiative so we may continue this important work.

Thank you.
