MEDIATION NETWORK OF NORTH CAROLINA

The Mediation Network of North Carolina is the umbrella organization for Community Mediation centers across the state. The mission of the Mediation Network of North Carolina is to promote, strengthen and support community mediation programs in North Carolina through volunteer board development, accountability, visibility, and resource development.

We envision communities empowered to resolve conflict peacefully, wholesome environments where productive communication and mutual respect are the norm. Our vision embraces the diversity that enriches our communities and schools and fosters mutual respect.

Community mediation offers constructive processes for resolving differences; and conflicts between individuals, groups, and organizations. It is an alternative to avoidance, destructive confrontation, prolonged litigation or violence.

It gives people in conflict an opportunity to take responsibility for the resolution of their dispute and control of the outcome. Community mediation is designed to preserve individual interests while strengthening relationships and building connections between people and groups, and create processes that make communities work for all of us.
