Description

The mission of the Community Conferencing Center is to provide a highly participatory, community-based process for people to transform their conflicts into cooperation, take collective and personal responsibility for action, and improve their quality of life. We believe people will generate creative and lasting solutions to their conflicts when everyone affected by a conflict is given a safe forum to tell his or her story and be part of the solution. Through partnerships with people, neighborhoods and institutions, the Community Conferencing Center helps Maryland communities resolve serious community and behavioral conflicts as well as unlawful acts that result in harm to citizens and their communities.
