Conflict Resolution Center of Montgomery County (CRCMC)

On "The Good Wife," instead of courtroom duels, she invites Ken Cloke in for a cameo guest appearance and resolved the case with thoughtful, empathic, insightful mediation. Meanwhile, Louise Phipps Senft mediates conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law by helping both strengthen self-awareness.

On "House", an intrepid CRCMC volunteer struck with an unknown disease, helps Dr. House and Dr. Cuddy work out a mutually beneficial arrangement for their constant power struggle, while locked in his/her own power struggle for survival with the mystery illness.... that House eventually cures... thanks to the mediation.

On "Desparate Housewives" after murder, promiscuous sex, and gossipy intrigue have lost their appeal, the talented and attractive principal characters invite CRCMC to engage in a community mediation. Finding their authentic selves, they form a nonprofit dedicated to providing healthcare and education for children at risk in their whole community, volunteering in local schools and humane shelters, and providing non-perishable food donations to the local food bank.

Thank you to our donors, our hard-working staff, and Board members who made it all possible. Though I was not a prize winner, just seeing friendly volunteers was emotional reward equal to the grand prize.

Let me know time and place and I'll see...

You are a valued volunteer Mike!
