My Nonprofit Reviews
Cathy Y.1
Review for Dispute Resolution Center of Montgomery County Inc, Conroe, TX, USA
As a volunteer with this agency for a several years, I have found them to be kind, ethical, discreet, and thoughtful of all parties: clients, attorneys, and the mediators. The DRC has been proactive and innovative in dealing with the challenges brought on by COVID.
Mediators help the parties bring their issues out for discussion and clarification, then negotiate to a workable and enforceable resolution, and document it into signed contract form. That signed contract may need to be filed with the court, which the clients do need to arrange themselves. This is all happening in an in person or online Zoom meeting, where everyone is treated with dignity and respect by the mediators.
In response to COVID, the Executive Director established technology and processes that allowed mediations to continue online. Other DRC's (we are all independent of each other) had to close down, or go on hiatus. We kept chugging right along, helping people resolve their conflicts.
This work is so meaningful to me. I know we have enabled individuals, businesses, and families at all income levels to solutions that can work for them, and to be able to put the conflicts behind them.
