Cancellation Policy
Contributions & Refunds Program contributions support Resha d’Rishane intake, review, communication, coordination, and program operations. All contributions are non-refundable once an inquiry is submitted, including if another person declines, does not respond, withdraws, or reconciliation does not occur. Payment does not guarantee acceptance, participation, mediation, or any outcome. Voluntary Participation & Consent Participation is voluntary. No person is required to respond, communicate, participate in mediation, apologize, forgive, or reconcile. An invitation does not constitute consent, and ACSMH will not pressure anyone to participate. Mental Health & Emergency Disclaimer Resha d’Rishane supports communication, mediation, reflection, and peaceful resolution. It is not psychotherapy, psychiatric or medical treatment, psychological diagnosis, legal representation, or emergency/crisis intervention. Participation does not establish a clinical or attorney-client relationship. If you or someone else is in immediate danger or at risk of harm, contact the appropriate emergency or crisis service in your location. Safety & Eligibility ACSMH may decline, pause, or discontinue matters that are inappropriate for mediation. Situations involving violence, abuse, coercion, stalking, threats, protective orders, criminal matters, significant power imbalances, or safety concerns may be ineligible or require additional review. Please disclose if contacting another person could create a safety risk. Privacy & Confidentiality ACSMH handles information according to applicable privacy, confidentiality, and legal obligations. When anonymous initial outreach is used, the requester's identity will not be disclosed in that initial invitation. Confidentiality cannot be guaranteed in every circumstance and may be subject to legal, professional, safety, or reporting obligations. Respectful Use Resha d’Rishane may not be used to harass, threaten, pressure, shame, retaliate against, impersonate, monitor, or repeatedly contact another person, or to circumvent a no-contact request or legal/protective order. ACSMH may refuse or discontinue outreach when necessary. No Guarantee or Determination of Fault ACSMH does not determine guilt, liability, who is “right,” or require reconciliation. Participation is not an admission of wrongdoing, and no particular outcome is guaranteed. Age Requirement: Participants must be 18 years or older.
