Learn Conflict Resolution Skills While Serving Your Community!

Resolutions Northwest (RNW) is a community-based nonprofit organization that provides high quality, cost-effective conflict resolution services and education to neighbors, families, communities, and organizations.  From now until November 26th, RNWS Neighborhood Mediation Program is recruiting applicants that reflect Portland's diversity for a limited number of spots in our annual volunteer mediation training.

The comprehensive, 35 hour training and year-long mentor program is FREE in exchange for your year-long, hands-on commitment to serve the diverse communities of Portland.  This opportunity is designed for people who are dedicated to helping neighbors and communities have challenging discussions and find mutually acceptable solutions together.  If you are called to serve your community and/or neighborhood by offering your time, talent, and heart-centered presence during times of conflict, then we hope you will consider working with RNWs Neighborhood Mediation Program.
