Resolve
Your Disputes (RYD) Program
The
RYD program seeks voluntary resolution of community related disputes
using a three-pronged approach - intervention, mediation, and bureaucratic
navigation:
- INTERVENTION
in our program is the active monitoring of the community's vital
signs to interrupt brewing conflicts (both in bars and coffeehouses).
- MEDIATION
is a process that uses a neutral third party to help disputants
resolve their own problems.
- BUREAUCRATIC
NAVIGATION is assisting community residents to access government
offices, people and programs.
RYD
partners with front line neighborhood groups, such as citizen's
patrols, local code enforcement committees, planning committees,
council offices, and community associations, since they are often
the first to become aware of simmering problems.
The
program also includes training in conflict resolution for community
groups, residents, and the business community.

more information, please contact the UHCDC at (619) 297-3166 or
