A supported way to have a conversation

​

• between two or more people in conflict

• among people who want to gain different perspectives

​

It can help you better understand the other person and possibly build an agreement

to move forward.

​

We believe

​

• each person’s outlook is unique and based on their experiences

• people can both take care of themselves and connect with the other person

• positive change can happen—and can last—when you make your own decisions

• ​​mediators ​​​

  • bring dignity, neutrality, and care to the conversation

  • help each person feel heard

  • support each person to build constructive ways to interact 

​

Mediators do not judge, give advice, act as counselors, or make decisions.           

They do listen deeply, support you to tell your story, and help you strengthen your relationships.
