Community Mediation DC is seeking Board members who have a strong connection to Washington, DC and a passion for expanding peace and social justice in the District. We're also looking for members who are willing to make a meaningful monthly time commitment to the organization and have:
• A desire to contribute to CMDC’s growth and development
• An ability to contribute to strengthening the organization internally – developing its functionality
• Skills to contribute to strengthening the organization externally – sharing in programmatic responsibilities

If you are interested, please complete our Board Member application here: https://forms.gle/RtitnneKqwzixUdK8 -- Or, reach out to our Board Chair Natalie Bamdad (nbamdad@changeelemental.org) with questions.

Interested in becoming a volunteer mediator?

We hold trainings about once a year, depending on our caseload, and prioritize current volunteers. Our next training in the DC area will be held in 2022. To apply for our training, please submit this application first to become a general volunteer, and then continue to our mediator application here: https://goo.gl/forms/wgYCHbLaGfAChp2J3.

We will check volunteer mediator applications and begin interviews 2-3 months before the scheduled training.

Community Mediation DC offers a 45-hour Inclusive Mediation training to community members at no cost, in exchange for committing to 8 volunteer hours per month over two years. These hours include observing mediations, co-mediating, supporting outreach activities, and administrative/organizational support. We currently only offer mediations in the Inclusive model, so this training is required for anyone interested in volunteering with this part of our work.

Anything else you would like us to know about you?

Community Mediation DC is primarily made up of an expanding group of volunteers. We will get back to you within one month, and please feel free to follow up with us sooner. Thank you!
