Community Dispute Resolution Centers

Community Dispute Resolution Centers (CDRCs) are local organizations that help resolve conflicts between individuals or groups through mediation and alternative dispute resolution methods. They offer services such as conflict coaching, mediation, and facilitation to promote understanding and agreement, often at reduced or no cost. CDRCs aim to reduce reliance on courts by providing a neutral, accessible space where parties can work collaboratively to address issues related to neighbors, workplaces, families, or community conflicts. Their goal is to promote peaceful resolutions while maintaining relationships and fostering community harmony.
