Transformative Mediation Training

This workshop emphasizes the development of practical skills to resolve interpersonal conflict and to facilitate mediation.  The workshop explores skills and develops strategies that enhance effective communication and are essential when facilitating conflict resolution.  Role-plays and interactive exercises to integrate theory and practice are an essential part of the training; coaches assist with the role-plays.

“Prior to my introduction to CJI, I had taken extensive training in alternative dispute resolution. …The training given by CJI is more encompassing from a practical application than any other that I have taken….”

CJI Mediation Volunteer Opportunities

Completing our mediation training is the first step to becoming a volunteer with our mediation services program.  *Due to the large complement of CJI volunteer mediators, we cannot guarantee a position on our volunteer roster for all who take the Transformative Mediation Training. Roster spots will be determined by CJI’s needs and interviews with CJI staff.


During our 40+ year history, we have continuously responded to community needs by creatively, and innovatively applying restorative justice principles to new problems. We believe the only limit to the power of restorative justice is the capacity of the human heart to change and grow.
