A Message From OMA’s Board

June 6, 2020 by ormediate

We are devastated by the tragedy and trauma that our community and nation are suffering.  We are horrified by George Floyd’s death and the continued acts of violence or threats of violence against the Black community. We stand against racism and oppression.

In order to disrupt the systemic racism that exists in our country, we each must listen to the voices of the historically oppressed and speak up against racism we encounter in our own lives. OMA is here and ready to help facilitate these important conversations.

We are inspired by the peaceful protests in Portland and other parts of the country. Our hope is that the pain and suffering swelling in our country right now will lead to greater dialogue and lasting change.  The OMA board hopes you will join us in exploring these issues for yourself and our community.

The Oregon Mediation Association

Welcome to OMA

Conflict is a natural part of life. Managed intentionally, conflict can positively transform lives and relationships. Mediators are trained to understand the source of conflicts and identify a path away from adversarial positions toward positive growth and change. Mediators create a safe space to have difficult conversations. The Oregon Mediation Association works to build greater awareness of mediation as a useful conflict management tool.

OMA in a Nutshell

OMA is a network of practitioners and supporters who are committed to the development, support and advocacy of mediation in Oregon.

Mission

OMA's mission is to help Oregonians transform the way they confront and resolve conflict in their personal lives and in their communities.
