Conflict Resolution & Public Participation Center (CPC)

Services

Managing conflicts and engaging the public are key skills for USACE professionals. The CPC enhances these skills and equips Corps personnel to implement collaborative decision-making processes in field operations.

The CPC’s mission is to help Corps staff anticipate, prevent, and manage water conflicts, ensuring that the interests of the public are addressed in Corps decision making. To achieve this mission, CPC offers the following services:

  • Training: Programs and educational materials for Corps staff members
  • Consultation: Advice and assistance on specific conflict resolution issues
  • References: Reports, articles and web materials to inform Corps members about collaborative tools and processes

The CPC’s services will help integrate the principles of environmental conflict resolution, collaboration and participation into the Corps’ daily operations. By supplying the knowledge, support and materials that Corps personnel need, CPC works to achieve the USACE goal of implementing collaborative approaches to effectively solve water resources problems.
