Mental Health and Bereavement Counseling from Service Program for Older People: https://www.spop.org/MEND NYC - Mediation for Quality of Life Issues: MEND NYC is a new citywide program that provides free mediation and conflict resolution services to address quality-of-life issues involving residents and hospitality establishments like bars, clubs, restaurants, and live music venues. MEND NYC provides another means to resolve excess garbage, loud music, and other noise, odors, vermin, and other quality-of-life issues through direct compromise and communication -- not enforcement action. The program will be administered by the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH), the City’s central independent administrative law court where summonses issued by the City’s various enforcement agencies are filed. Residents, businesses, or third parties can request mediation by emailing, MENDNYC@oath.nyc.gov, or visiting https://www1.nyc.gov/site/oath/conflict-resolution/mediating-establishment-and-neighbor-disputes.page
