Scheduling & FAQ What to Expect from Mediation ROLE OF MEDIATOR Mediators at the DRC are impartial, third party facilitators. They are present to help the clients communicate effectively about their dispute and encourage the clients to work collaboratively toward a solution. The mediators will not take sides or give advice. They will not tell you what to do or impose a decision on you. GOOD FAITH In mediation you will be asked to participate in good faith. This will include listening to the other party, keeping an open mind about solutions, share all pertinent information, and truly working toward a win-win solution. Clients will be asked to give serious consideration to proposals made during the mediation. COMMON COURTESY It is very important for clients to participate in mediation using basic rules of common courtesy. You will be asked to refrain from interrupting the other party, using inflammatory language, name calling and pushing the other party's hot buttons. THE PROCESS The process is designed to help you communicate with the other person and focus on problem solving. It will include an introductory statement by the mediators, followed by uninterrupted statements by each of you. This statement should focus on what has brought you to the mediation and what you would like to see happen. The mediators will then help the two of you create a list of items to discuss during the mediation. You will be given an opportunity to negotiate with the other person while the mediators assist by facilitating the conversation. Finally the mediators will put into writing any agreements the two of you reach. PREPARING FOR MEDIATION It's important for mediation clients to be prepared. Please remember to email any paperwork you will need to help make an informed decision to your case manager prior to the mediation. It can also be helpful to complete a Mediation Preparation Worksheet. With online mediation, it is important to provide these documents to your case manager at least two weeks prior to your mediation. LEGAL ADVICE Neither DRC staff nor the mediators in a case will provide legal advice. If you need the assistance of an attorney prior to your mediation, you are encouraged to seek any outside information you will need to help you negotiate. Mediation Resources Family Mediation Application Plain Language Parenting Plan Form Agreement to Mediate Fee Discount Application Scheduling Mediation & FAQs Mediation Preparation Worksheet Worksheet for Dividing Property & Debt 10 Tips for Workplace Conflict Resolution Mediation Fee Refund Policy A non-refundable fee of $75.00 per party for case management applies. After mediation fees are received by both parties, the fees are not refundable; however, the case will be placed in holding for one year, during which time clients may schedule mediation. After one year the fees are forfeited. Cancellations requested after a mediation has been scheduled will result in fees being applied to future sessions and those fees will not be refunded.

You do not need to contact the Dispute Resolution Center prior. Mediators will be automatically provided for your mediation session at the courthouse. If you have questions about filing your court paperwork or the court process, you will need to contact the appropriate District Court. Small Claims Process THE DAY OF YOUR HEARING The judge will give opening remarks about the mediation process and why it’s beneficial to participate fully in the process. The judge will call through the calendar and in cases where both parties to a case are present, they will be sent to mediation. You will be connected virtually to the DRC mediation team who will help you through the mediation process online. A laptop or other devise is needed for your session. A professional mediator will help you negotiate your case to see if a satisfactory resolution can be reached. All settlements are legally binding and protect both parties. There is no risk in settling your case. If either party breaks the contract, the other can request trial before a judge. HOW TO PREPARE Bring all documentation to mediation that you will be presenting at trial. This allows all parties to make an informed decision based on what will be presented at trial. Witnesses are not necessary at mediation and will be asked to wait outside of the mediation. Witnesses only participate in mediation if all the parties listed in the dispute agree to have the witness participate. THE PROCESS Mediators are neutral 3rd parties and do not give legal advice or recommend how to resolve your case. They are highly trained and will guide you through a process that will allow each party an opportunity to share the views and options for resolving your case. Once a mutually satisfying agreement has been reached the mediator will write out your agreement which captures the details of your settlement. The mediation process is confidential. Requests and offers are protected by confidentiality. Once you go to trial the judge will not hear offers made in mediation. This allows you to be creative and flexible when making offers to resolve the case. POSSIBLE OUTCOMES The process is designed to help you communicate with the other person and focus on problem solving. It will include an introductory statement by the mediators, followed by uninterrupted statements by each of you. This statement should focus on what has brought you to the mediation and what you would like to see happen. The mediators will then help the two of you create a list of items to discuss during the mediation. You will be given an opportunity to negotiate with the other person while the mediators assist by facilitating the conversation.

The Native Resource Hub is a resource line specifically for Native American/Alaska Native people. The Hub was developed to support Indian health care providers, Tribal governments, families, and individuals looking for assistance navigating the complex behavioral health system. The Hub provides both Native and Non-Native resources to any person requesting them. Any Indigenous person in Washington state can call the Hub for resources or support. The Hub is a statewide service available to meet the needs of the Tribal Affiliated community and coordinates with Tribal agencies, healthcare professionals, hospitals, and in- and outpatient programs.

Native Hub Resource Survey NSLL Suicide is the second leading cause of death for Native youth ages 10-24 Native & Strong Lifeline The Native and Strong Lifeline is a suicide, crisis, and help line specifically for American Indian and Alaska Natives. The Native and Strong Lifeline is fully staffed and operated by other Native people. This means that when you call the Native and Strong Lifeline, a Tribal Crisis Counselor will take your call. We are here to listen. Any time. Call 988, option 4 or text N8V to 988 Why do we need the Native and Strong Lifeline? Suicide is the second leading cause of death for Native youth ages 10-24. Native communities experience the highest rates of suicide amongst all racial and ethnic groups in the United States, and suicide rates among American Indian and Alaska Native communities rose by 118 percent between 1999-2017. Suicide is preventable and your time here is sacred. The Native and Strong Lifeline is one way that we can help prevent suicide in our communities and make each other stronger. It will send a message that healing and getting help are normal and important parts of life. Who can call the Native and Strong Lifeline? The Native and Strong Lifeline serves all AI/AN, First Nations, Enrolled tribal members, and unenrolled descendants. This line is for all Indigenous people living in Washington state, regardless of their geographic tribal location. How will this affect my community? Community members will now be able to receive confidential services during mental health emergencies with minimal involvement of police or hospitals. They will be served by other Natives who have a true understanding of their specific needs, keeping traditional elements of culture in mind on their journey to healing. What happens when you call? You will be connected with a trained Tribal Crisis Counselor. The caller can talk about any emotional crisis, not just suicide. The Tribal Crisis Counselor will use active listening to assess risk, determine if a person is in danger, and assist the person in feeling better and accessing resources. If the counselor believes the caller is in danger, they will work with the caller to create a safety plan that does not require calling emergency services. Less than 3% of calls result in dispatching 911 services. If you are calling about a friend or family member who is in distress, the person on the phone will walk you through how to help and provide resources. Does NSLL replace my local Tribal crisis line? No. The Native and Strong Lifeline will not be replacing any existing Tribally operated crisis lines. The Native and Strong Lifeline is simply available to any Indigenous person wanting to speak to other Native people when they need support. For example, some people like to work with people outside of their Tribes when they need support or, if your Tribe’s crisis line is not available 24/7 you can call the Native and Strong Lifeline as an alternative. There are many reasons that a person may wish to call, and we are here to support you.
