About Us
Founded in 2010, Susquehanna Valley Mediation (SVM) strives to build a stronger, more vibrant community by supporting constructive responses to conflict through mediation, facilitation, and education. SVM envisions peaceful communities where people have supportive connections and are able to deal with conflicts as they arise, and honor human dignity, even where there are strong differences.
