CRU Institute is a non-profit organization based in Bellevue, WA that has been providing peer mediation, cultural awareness, anti-violence, and anti-bullying programs for faculty, students, and parents in elementary, middle, and high schools since 1992. Their mission is to teach young people effective, peaceful ways to resolve conflict and to develop understanding, respect, and the ability to cooperate with others in a multicultural world.
Through their structured peer mediation process, CRU Institute trains neutral student mediators to help their peers experiencing conflict by using conflict mediation techniques. By fostering understanding and empathy, the mediators assist the disputants in identifying the problems they wish to resolve and creating their own solutions. With their tried and tested methods, CRU Institute's programs have been implemented in schools across the United States and in many countries worldwide, helping to reduce conflicts, increase cultural awareness, address bullying, and promote inclusion.
