Mediation Services for Churches and Community Groups

Mediation Services

Our attorney-mediators can come into a wide variety of settings, both large and small, to assist organizations and community groups to resolve conflict.

• Churches and Religious Organizations - Conflict within religious communities can be particularly painful.  Forward Focus offers mediation services to help your church, synagogue, or other religious organization understand and resolve your conflict so that your community can begin moving toward healing and peace. We can also train congregational mediation teams within your organization to help you and your community with future conflicts.
• Property and Community Disputes - At Forward Focus, we provide mediation services to resolve disagreements and disputes related to land use and property, including neighborhood and zoning disputes as well as landlord/tenant and other property-related disagreements.
• Schools – Our mediators can assist your school with any of the various forms of conflict that can arise in schools and educational settings, such as bullying, disputes between parents and teachers or administrators, conflict between teachers and administration, disputes between individual teachers or groups of teachers, and disagreements related to special education.
