Community Mediation

Community mediation offers constructive processes for resolving differences and conflicts between individuals, groups, and organizations.

Community Mediation

Community mediation is an alternative to avoidance, destructive confrontation, prolonged litigation or violence. It gives people in conflict an opportunity to take responsibility for the resolution of their dispute and control of the outcome. Community Mediation is designed to preserve individual interests while strengthening relationships and building connections between people and groups, and to create processes that make communities work for all of us.

Call, e-mail, or stop by our office. A member of our staff will talk with you and determine if mediation is appropriate for your situation. With your permission, we will contact the other party to see if he or she is interested in resolving the dispute through mediation. Once we have made contact with both parties, we can schedule a mediation session within two weeks.
