The Community Justice and Mediation Center (CJAM) is offering a 40-hour training program for community members interested in learning about conflict resolution, mediation, or restorative justice. These skills are useful in all areas of life -- family relationships, work relationships, volunteer work, etc. If you are interested in enhancing your communication, listening, and problem solving skills, along with learning basic mediation and negotiation skills, this is a great opportunity for you. The training offers hands-on skill development combining activities, lecture, and practice. Completion of the training qualifies participants to become volunteer mediators with CJAM.
Training sessions will be held on Thursday evenings (7-9 pm) and Saturdays (8:30 am-3:00 pm). Dates are September 7, 9, 14, 16, 21, 23, 28, 30, and October 5, 7. Tuition is $300, with an early bird special of $275 if received by 9/1/23. A limited number of scholarships are available -- just ask!
