Become a Volunteer Community Mediator!

Do you enjoy helping people solve problems? Are you a good listener? Do you believe difficult conversations can lead to positive change?

The Mediation Center is now accepting applications for our next Community Mediation Training beginning September 30th, 2026.

Our 50-hour training prepares volunteers to serve as community mediators, helping neighbors, families, roommates, and others work through conflict in a respectful, collaborative way. No prior mediation experience is required. We welcome participants from a variety of backgrounds who are committed to learning and serving their communities.

Current volunteer mediators receive ongoing support, mentorship, continuing education, and opportunities to mediate alongside experienced partners.

Learn more and apply: https://mediatewnc.org/volunteer/become-a-volunteer-community-mediator/

Please help us spread the word by sharing this opportunity with friends, colleagues, or anyone who you think would make a great mediator.
