Description
Mediation is a way of helping people settle their differences peacefully. Mediators do not take sides or make decisions, but do help people solve problems in ways that are decided and agreed upon by all involved parties. Each participant is given an equal chance to state his or her point of view in a safe, neutral and private setting. The role of the mediator is that of a facilitator. Mediators create an atmosphere of equality and respect for all participants.
Mediators are community volunteers who have completed 24-30 hours of classroom training and an internship with an experienced mediator or staff
