Real Peacemakers Serving the Baltimore Community
Baltimore Community Mediation Center teaches and uses conflict resolution skills to provide a framework for people to have difficult conversations and make plans about things that are important to them.
We provide a variety of mediation and conflict management services to Baltimore City organizations and residents. Mediation services are free to the community, while our Conflict Management trainings are offered for a fee. All services have the ability to transform lives and bring power back to individuals.

Mediation
Holding a non-judgmental, confidential, and voluntary framework for people to have difficult conversations is the heart of our work. Mediators listen, ask questions, and clarify what’s important to each participant. We don’t offer advice and we don’t take sides. Each participant makes their own decisions in mediation. Mediation is appropriate for every stage of conflict. It is never too late – or too early – to mediate.
Training
Humaning can sometimes be hard. We provide trainings that give people tools to be heard, understand others, and navigate challenges in communicating with other humans. In addition to extensive training for our volunteer mediators, we offer customized trainings to community groups, businesses, and all types of organizations.
