The Mediation Center

The Mediation Center We help people solve and prevent conflict in their family or community by using the mediation process. We help people solve and prevent conflict.

The Mediation Center is a non-profit organization that provides Maury and surrounding counties with high-quality dispute resolution services at affordable rates. We are dedicated to helping resolve the disputes that arise in our community. We serve as a place where people can come and solve their disagreements before incurring the emotional and economic costs of litigation. Our trained mediators e

mploy problem solving strategies that encourage communication and empower parties to develop their own solutions. We have no stake in the outcome of your dispute. Our only goal is to help everyone who comes through our doors leave with their conflict resolved. We do this in a number of different ways that vary depending on each situation. In essence, we listen to each party’s concerns, help articulate and prioritize those concerns, then search for and help devise common ground so that everyone can put the matter to rest and move on.

In alignment with county government offices, The Mediation Center will be closed tomorrow. Because our office is located within a government facility and our staff travel via rural roads, we are prioritizing safety during this weather event.
​Please note that all mediations will be conducted via Zoom until further notice. Thank you for your understanding. Stay warm and stay safe!

After driving in to the Maury County Office of Emergency Management from Albert Matthews Road, I have decided to keep Maury County Government Offices closed tomorrow. That includes the Courts and Maury County Animal Shelter.

My driveway was a sheet of ice, trees were down along the roads, and I saw many other driveways in the same condition as ours. And also many have been without power as well, and others with water issues.

Please stay home if possible. Let our power companies, water providers, Emergency Management and Highway Department keep working hard to get things more back to normal and safe. I appreciate all of them so very much!

Please help your neighbors when possible.

We are a strong, resilient community, and I am thankful for our outstanding team work!

✅ I will post one more update on closings, warming stations, etc. late this afternoon.

Big Changes at The Mediation Center!
​Today, we are sharing some bittersweet news as we celebrate a major milestone. After 10 years of superb service, our Administrative Assistant, Debbie Trimble, has officially retired.
​Debbie’s commitment to our mission has left a lasting legacy, and while we will miss her presence in the office daily, we are so incredibly thankful for everything she has given to The Center. Debbie, we hope retirement is as sweet as you are!
​Please join us in welcoming a familiar face to a new role! We are thrilled to introduce Pamela Hyland as our new Administrative Assistant. Pamela has been with us since June 2025 as our Victim Offender Program Coordinator. With her extensive background in HR services, we know she will thrive in this new position.
​Congratulations to Debbie on her retirement and to Pamela on her promotion! 🎉
