Title: Peer Mediation
Description: A form of conflict resolution in which trained student leaders help their peers work together to resolve everyday disputes. Student mediators do not make judgments, offer advice, and they have no power to force decisions upon their peers. Because mediation is sensitive to the underlying causes of conflict, the vast majority of peer mediation sessions (approx. 85%) result in lasting resolutions.
