Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

The mission of The Mediation Center is to create opportunity from conflict.

  • In the 2024-2025 fiscal year, 283 individuals participated in mediation. The Mediation Center provided mediation for 32 Helene-related conflicts involving 92 people. In addition, we served more than 200 people with Medicaid Appeals mediation. . The Family Visitation Program facilitated over 500 safe supervised visits between children and their non- custodial parents. FVPs safe exchange and supervised visitation protected 85 child clients from harm and prevented adult survivors of family violence from re-traumatization through contact with the other parent. FVP continues to see a steady demand for services.

    Expenses $472,514 · Grants $91,943 · Revenue $137,241

  • Through our training services, we provided 185 lawyers with continuing legal education and launched a 40-hour training for lawyers to become Superior Court Mediators. In addition, 12 community members completed a 50-hour training program to become volunteer mediators, and 91 community leaders attended a conflict response skills training.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
