Restorative Dialogue & Mediation Program
The Restorative Dialogue & Mediation Program provides community members with a professional, confidential, and secure environment to address conflict, civil disputes, and other issues.
This program takes the form of a mediation, where parties meet to discuss an issue, settle a dispute, or come to a civil agreement.
This program offers mediation for cases that need a formal agreement or a restorative intervention for parties that need a space to talk, but do not need a written agreement.
Anyone in the community can request this service. Please see eligibility below.
