As neutral facilitators, our service providers can take charge, make sure there is balanced participation, and help the group to be clear about agenda items, decisions and future action items.
Check in every Wednesday 4–5pm to discuss aspects of conflict resolution in our community. Contact info@mvmediation.org to join us by Zoom. From February 9 to April 27 we will also focus on community outreach.
