Mediation
Conflict is natural and normal. We all experience it in our lives, whether with family members, coworkers, or individuals in our community. Often our conflicts are disagreements minor enough that they can be easily resolved or worked around. Occasionally, however, disagreements grow beyond the point where an easy solution is possible.
Mediation can help.
Mediation is a form of dispute resolution.
Mediation can be used to resolve almost any issue in families, workplaces, neighborhoods, churches, and communities.
Mediation has a higher success (80-90%) and compliance rate than court-imposed judgment, according to the American Bar Association.
Mediation is a process in which a neutral (the mediator) facilitates communication between the parties and, without deciding the issues or imposing a solution on the parties, enables them to understand and to reach a mutually agreeable resolution to their dispute.
