Emotional CPR Training
2025-10-29 09:00 - 16:00
Ohio Department of Behavioral Health & The P.E.E.R. Center are offering a free training: Emotional CPR (eCPR)

eCPR is an educational program developed by the recovery movement designed to teach people to assist others through an emotional crisis with three simple steps:

C = Connecting

P = emPowering

R = Revitalizing

The Connecting process of eCPR involves deepening listening skills, practicing presence, and creating a sense of safety for the person experiencing a crisis. The emPowering process helps people better understand how to feel empowered themselves as well as to assist others to feel more hopeful and engaged in life. In the Revitalizing process, people re-engage in relationships with their loved ones or their support system, and they resume or begin routines that support health and wellness which reinforces the person’s sense of mastery and accomplishment, further energizing the healing process.
