Family Conferencing can assist a family organize itself and communicate better so members can work with each other and with community resource people. The Peninsula Conflict Resolution Center offers its resources, free, to help turn a difficult situation around and encourage positive plans for the future. Our staff will contact the family, find out whom they would like to invite to the conference and make preliminary arrangements. Participation in a family conference is always voluntary. The goal is to develop an action plan to improve the situation the family is facing.
All families have strengths and the ability to change.
Families can often come up with the best plan to meet their needs. Effective new ways of communicating learned in the conferencing process can have lasting effects. You can count on our neutrality and our confidentiality. Family Conferencing works for families and for the community.
