Conflict Mediation Strategies

In-Person Workshop

Lorain High School, A209

To Register complete this form.

Conflict is an omnipresent phenomenon in human interaction. Conflicts can lead to productive and positive changes or growth or to the destruction and degradation of relationships. A crucial variable in dispute outcome is the means that the participants use to resolve their differences. Now, more than ever before, there is a need for dispute resolution procedures that assist parties in meeting their needs, satisfying their interests, and minimizing physical and psychological harm. This workshop will inform participants of a variety of conflict resolution strategies. If time permits, participants will have opportunities to practice these skills.
