Conflict Transformation

Conflict is a natural part of community life. Conflict itself is not an issue but how we respond to it can be. Ignoring or denying it can be problemmatic, as can engaging it in ways that are destructive to individuals and congregations.

MBD seeks to support congregations in engaging conflict in creative ways that build sustainable, healthy relationships. Our Transformation Team is a group of individuals trained in applying tools and teaching skills that can help your congregation work through conflict and come out stronger.

Congregational leaders who seek support for their efforts at navigating conflict in their congregation are welcome to contact tcooley [at] uua [dot] org ( Rev. Dr. Terasa Cooley), District Executive, to discuss possibilities for getting support from the Transformation Team.
