Mission Statement
The Tennessee Valley Mediation Association has two distinct missions: to foster high quality mediation and to promote mediation as an alternative dispute resolution process. TVMA is an inclusive organization that welcomes all supporters of mediation and alternative dispute resolution practices.

What is Mediation?
Within every relationship, there is a possibility for conflict. How we view conflict informs us on how to deal with it. Some people prefer to avoid it. Others like to engage in the use of power. And others use conflict as a positive force for change.

Mediators have training to assist everyone to find ways to transform conflict into a positive, constructive avenue to a different way of being together in their future relationship.

Mediation is intended to facilitate communication between people and find solutions through clarifying their interests and needs and exploring all options at their disposal that best meet their unique situation and circumstances.
