The Divided Community Project seeks to support community leaders as they identify and address issues tearing at the social fabric of their respective communities. Grounded in dispute resolution, mediation, and dispute systems design theory and practice, DCP brings together, community leaders, activists, law enforcement, and academics to develop practice guidance for community leaders in diverse communities.
