    About Us

    QRFup is dedicated to providing crisis intervention, mental health support and suicide prevention resources for Veterans and First Responders. We work to ensure that those who have served or are currently serving our communities receive the critical care and support they need during times of crisis. We need you as a volunteer to ensure our mission is a success. If you have time you'd like to dedicate to the men and women who serve you and your community, QRFup is a great way to do that.

    QRFup is self funded by its Board of Directors. Everyone is a volunteer, with the majority of positions being as-needed part-time.
