How does your > community meet this need? At JP Cohousing, we have a CPR (Conflict Prevention and Resolution) team. Many of the members of that team have an amateur practice group, but membership in that group is not required. If you are having a conflict with a neighbor, you can a) choose to attempt to work it out yourself b) find a mediator of your own -- either professional or not c) call on the services of the CPR team to help you to resolve it. We have found this to work very well for us. I hope that helps. Jeanne Goodman Jamaica Plain Cohousing Boston, MA
