[cid:image008.png at 01DC1BF3.F2B9FBB0] 🌟 Now Enrolling: Fall 2025 Basic Mediation Training 🌟
 The Center for Dialogue & Resolution is excited to announce our upcoming Basic Mediation Training, open to anyone interested in building conflict resolution and communication skills.
 This interactive, 40-hour virtual course offers a strong foundation in mediation principles and practices and will give you an insight into the world of mediation. You’ll gain practical tools for navigating conflict in everyday life, work, and community settings.
 We are extending a special invitation to individuals who speak multiple languages.  Your presence and skills can play a vital role in making conflict resolution more inclusive and accessible for all.  In addition, CDR would welcome your voice in helping us better reach underserved communities.

Upon completion of the training, you will receive 1-year free membership to the Oregon Mediation Association (OMA) which offers resources, opportunities to network, as well as various trainings throughout the year.
 In addition, soon after the end of the BMT, we are planning to host (virtually) a free panel discussion on mediation career paths and possibilities for any BMT graduates who are interested.

Daisy CHAIN is at a powerful moment of transformation. As our founding Executive Director prepares to transition out of their role, we are seeking a compassionate, community-rooted, and visionary leader to guide the organization into its next chapter.

DC's mission is to provide the community with research and evidence-based support services and education for individuals and families who are pregnant and parenting. We aim to shift the cultural paradigm of pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenting care by addressing both individual and systemic barriers. We do this through high-quality, evidence-based, culturally competent care and community-driven action, offering all services free of charge to our clients.

We believe everyone deserves access to pregnancy, lactation, parenting support, and doula care from qualified professionals and peers in their own community.

As Executive Director (ED), you will lead a deeply values-driven nonprofit of 30+ staff and a multi-million dollar budget. You will play a vital role in grounding the organization’s foundation while supporting continued growth and success. In partnership with the Board of Directors, you’ll help sustain Daisy CHAIN’s impact, financial stability, and alignment with its mission.

We value candidates who share lived experiences with the communities we serve — including but not limited to:

  *   Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC)
  *   LGBTQIA+ individuals
  *   People living with disabilities
  *   People with experience navigating pregnancy, parenting, substance use, recovery, houselessness, or poverty
  *   Those who speak languages other than English
  *   People from rural areas or those who’ve experienced systemic barriers to care or employment

To Apply

     *   What experience do you have advocating for or moving within systemically excluded communities? Please give specific examples.
     *   What experience with pregnancy, termination, birth, lactation, infertility, parenting, or peer support relevant to this position (if any) will you bring to this work? Share as you feel comfortable.
     *   What do you see as the primary need of birthing/pregnant people who use substances and/or live outside?
     *   We value lived experience on our team. Do you have experience, personal or work, in substance use, recovery, or mental health? Please share as you feel comfortable.

We understand that not all candidates will be able to fully represent their abilities with a
