Neighborhood Mediation Programs

Neighborhood Mediation Programs are community-based services that help residents resolve conflicts peacefully outside of courts. They bring together neighbors involved in disputes—such as disagreements over noise, property boundaries, or shared resources—and guide them through open, respectful conversations. Trained mediators facilitate this process, encouraging parties to understand each other's perspectives and work toward mutually acceptable solutions. The goal is to restore harmony, prevent escalation, and strengthen community relationships, all while saving time and reducing the need for legal action.
