Building a collaborative future, together.

Collaborative.
Accessible.
Confidential.

The Dispute Resolution Center of Grays Harbor & Pacific Counties is a non-profit serving people and organizations of all income levels since 1999.

Our community conflict resolution and mediation programs are effective ways to handle problems, outside of the court and confidentially, with the help of a team of highly skilled and trauma-informed individuals.

No matter the situation or complex issue, you can always turn to the Dispute Resolution Center for a clear, collaborative and accessible path forward.

  • To build long-lasting conflict solutions between people and groups across Grays Harbor and Pacific Counties.

  • To nurture and equip the community with the knowledge and skills to solve its own conflicts in a dignified way.

Nuestras Historias

  • "With a polarized social and political climate, I believe we have forgotten how to communicate with people of differing perspectives. I appreciate the fact that we serve individuals with entrenched beliefs that learn to compromise for the betterment of our community."

    Derek Bumrungsiri, DRC Board Member

  • "Conflict exists everywhere in our lives, and it's necessary for our change and growth as human beings. Our reaction to it and how we deal with conflict is important! The DRC helps equip people with the tools to deal with conflict in a healthy, meaningful way that can last a lifetime."

    Kristine Torset, Mediator

  • "Nuestra sociedad y cultura tienen una perspectiva negativa con la palabra "conflicto". La realidad es que el conflicto es una parte normal de cualquier relación saludable. Y porque el conflicto es una parte normal de la vida de todos, nuestro centro provee las herramientas para resolver conflictos de manera efectiva.

    Jessica Molina, Miembro de la Junta Directiva del DRC
