NeuroMediation Group LLC, proven international conflict resolution experts, today announced the launch of the Housing Mediation Project serving Blaine County landlords and tenants. The City of Ketchum, in partnership with Blaine County, contracted NeuroMediation Group to develop, market, and administer the program.

“NeuroMediation Group possesses the necessary knowledge, skills, and experience to execute a much-needed housing mediation program quickly and efficiently,” said City of Ketchum Housing Strategist Carissa Connelly. “We are experiencing extremely limited alternative housing options, and formal mediation could help stabilize or assist over 90 households and landlords in Blaine County in the first year.”

Through the Housing Mediation Project, NeuroMediation Group will provide free mediation services throughout Blaine County to landlords and tenants, and mediation training to mediators, caseworkers, and stakeholders, as appropriate. On Tues., Nov. 29, NeuroMediation Group is presenting a free training on the components and complexities of landlord-tenant laws in Idaho, led a top Idaho real estate attorney.

On Sept. 6, 2022, Ketchum City Council unanimously passed the mediation program, which aligns with Ketchum’s Housing Action Plan (HAP) goal no. 3 to expand + improve services to create housing stability.
