Center for Dispute Settlement

February is flying by, which means we're already halfway through #BlackHistoryMonth. Let's keep the education and discussions flowing by sharing these quotes from inspirational icons with our children (or friends!), and sharing with them the powerful impact these words have had throughout history. #PeaceitTogether https://zcu.io/tD3d

Did you know that a random act of kindness can actually release hormones that contribute positively to your overall mood? To learn more about the science of kindness, check out this article! #MakeKindnessTheNorm #RandomActsofKindnessDay #PieceItTogether

We believe that if you give love, you’ll get love back! Happy #ValentinesDay from us to you. #PeaceitTogether

As we celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth we'd like to share with you the Democrat & Chronicle's ongoing list of Black-owned restaurants and bakeries around #Rochester. With Valentine's Day right around the corner, we encourage you to pick up some sweet treats for a loved one, or make a dinner reservation/take-out order from one of these local businesses!

Did you know that The Center for Dispute Settlement was the first dispute resolution center in New York State and the third in the country? Since its establishment in 1973, hundreds of #volunteer members of the community have been trained and serve as third-party neutrals, successfully resolving thousands of cases per year that would otherwise go to court. #PeaceitTogether #CDS

Today we celebrate and honor the extraordinary life of activist and humanitarian Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the man who always reminds us that "the time is always right to do the right things".

Our mission is simple: Build resilient communities, so that they can tackle whatever may come their way. #PeaceItTogether #CDS

Our goal is to promote alternative dispute resolution processes that enable individuals, communities, and organizations to resolve conflicts without litigation. We are overjoyed when we receive feedback saying that we have accomplished just that! #PeaceitTogether

As a very difficult year comes to a close, we wish you and your family a safe, healthy, and extra sweet New Year!

May you and your family have a very safe holiday full of joy!
