Neighborhood Mediation Program

3/31/2012

0 Comments

 
by Annmarie Phelan, Resolutions Northwest volunteer mediator

Conflict happens in the best of neighborhoods and to the best of neighbors: dogs bark, music is played, fences are altered, tenants and landlords disagree. It is the response to such conflict that determines how satisfying life in your community will be. At times you can resolve the conflict on your own, and other times you need some guidance. For the situations when you want some assistance, there is Resolutions Northwest’s (RNW) Neighborhood Mediation Program, providing services at no cost to Portland residents. Mediation allows you and your neighbor to sit down and have a conversation, facilitated by a neutral, third-party mediator. More than 90% of mediations end in an agreement that works for everyone involved. And most mediations require just one 2-hour session. So, before your next conflict gets out of  hand, contact Resolutions Northwest at 503-595-4890 or on the web at www.resolutionsnorthwest.org, and we’ll assist you in finding a solution that works for both you and your neighbor.

Newsletter Distribution Coordinator Needed!

3/28/2012

0 Comments

 
by Jeff Strang

Are you an organized person who likes working with people while promoting neighborhood communication and exercise? Can you spare 4 hours a month for 9 months of the year? Then the SCA Newsletter Distribution Coordinator position may be right for you! I've done it for 4 years, and need a break to focus on other things. It's been incredibly rewarding to work with 35 fellow volunteers to get the local word out! It helps to know a computer spreadsheet program, and be able to pick up SCANs from the local printer by 5pm, normally on the first Friday of the month for the 9 months we produce it (we skip June, July and December). Give me a call - let's talk!

Sabin Orchard Work and Learn Party April 15

3/28/2012

0 Comments

 
Picture
Everyone is invited to the April 15 Work and Learn Party, where we will learn about supportive planting under fruit trees and do some autumn bulb planting. We hope to have the new trellis installed, so we’ll be transplanting our grape vines, hardy kiwi and other plants that need a little support. And it wouldn’t be a Work and Learn Party without some weeding, although the sheet mulch is really beginning to keep the invasive weeds down. We hope to see you at the Sabin Community Orchard on Sunday, April 15!
If you are interested in getting involved in orchard organizing or want to volunteer at a Work and Learn party, please contact intern@portlandfruit.org.

During these busy times when life is so full and complicated, it's good to slow down and take the time to relax and realize what we have around us.  I hope we can all make some connections to help us enrich our neighborhood.

So, let's make the most of this beautiful day
Since we're together we might as well say
Would you be mine, could you be mine
Won't you be my neighbor?

Please drop by for a visit on Sunday, April 15 from 2:30pm - 5:30pm at our home, 3622 NE 18th. This is a kid- (and adult-) friendly event with some offerings of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages as well as an assortment of other snacks.  Please feel free to bring your own libation and/or edible to share.  RSVP not necessary.  

See you on the 15th of April!
