Center For Conflict Resolution

The Center for Conflict Resolution (CCR) provides quality mediation services at low (or no) cost to the greater Los Angeles community. CCR is primarily funded by a Dispute Resolution Programs Act grant. Since 1994, CCR has provided mediation services to the Los Angeles Superior Court, with a particular emphasis on Small Claims, Unlawful Detainer (Eviction) and Civil Harassment cases. CCR mediates over 2,500 Small Claims cases per year. CCR’s court-connected mediation program seeks to reduce overburdened court calendars by providing mediators to assist litigants in resolving their disputes (without having to appear before a judge). CCR's court-connected mediation services are offered in the following 9 courthouses throughout Los Angeles County: Chatsworth, Compton, Downey, Inglewood, Pasadena, Pomona, Santa Monica, Van Nuys and West Covina. Today, CCR is governed by a Board of Directors and relies on a full-time staff as well as approximately 100 active volunteer mediators who mediate 95% of CCR's cases. In creating its mediation workforce, CCR partners with local law schools, including Pepperdine and USC. This allows students the opportunity to engage in a "hands-on" educational clinic in which they mediate real world disputes. CCR's community mediation program includes various types of cases, including employment, landlord-tenant and contractual disputes. CCR relies on a pool of experienced volunteer mediators equipped with the skills to handle all types of disputes. The pool comprises both Attorney-Mediators and Non-Attorney Mediators. CCR is an equal opportunity ADR service provider that values the diversity of the greater Los Angeles community. We hope that you support CCR’s mission of Bringing Peace and Creating Peacemakers!
