Equity & Access Initiative Goals
1
Expand our entire community’s access to resolution and justice.
Finances should not be a barrier to mediation. Your investment will ensure all who need dispute resolution have access regardless of their ability to fully fund the cost of mediation.
2
Build a diverse mediator corps to reflect the people we serve.
Imagine the impact of mediators, trainers and facilitators who more closely represent the people accessing CDR's services.
3
Create equitable pathways to mediation and facilitation training.
We must increase the number of people who develop the skills needed to facilitate peaceful dialog.
4
Ensure conflict resolution services in our community for the next 25 years.
Fulfill our community's need for social justice and equity innovation for many years to come.
