ProgramMediation Services
Address The Carriage House
570 Broad Street
Providence, RI 02907
CategoriesCrisis Intervention
Violence Prevention Education
Description The concept of community mediation has grown rapidly over the course of the past three decades in response to concerns over violence in our society and frustration with our overburdened and expensive judicial system. More than 500 community mediation centers now operate throughout the United States, 37 in Massachusetts alone. Today community mediation centers are recognized as vital components of justice in most states. The Community Mediation Center of Rhode Island (CMCRI), founded in 1996, is Rhode Island’s only such center. We are committed to the concepts of social justice and of empowering parties to express their underlying needs, interests and concerns, and to identify and arrive at mutually acceptable solutions. CMCRI provides mediation and dispute resolution services to community residents and organizations regardless of their ability to pay. This past year CMCRI staff and volunteer mediators intervened in over 400 disputes annually, both in the community and in the Small Claims Courts, assisting with family and parent-teen conflicts, court-involved juveniles, neighbor-to-neighbor, organizational and workplace disputes, agricultural conflicts, landlord-tenant, human rights cases, victim/offender and small claims matters. By providing a forum in which parties can meet face to face to discuss their differences, we offer a voluntary, cooperative and constructive way of resolving conflicts and reaching agreements. We also provide mediation and conflict resolution training to adults and children in the community and in the schools. Over the past 12 months, CMCRI has offered 16 mediation and conflict resolution training sessions to over 235 children and adults, representing a large spectrum of races, ethnicities and experiences. The underlying goal of our work is to build and strengthen individuals, families and communities. Mediation enables individuals to build bridges within diverse populations by providing opportunities to solve disputes peacefully, preserve relationships and address root causes of conflict.
Program Open ToAnyone experiencing a conflict, or interested in receiving conflict resolution training or workshops (Rhode Island residents).
