I wanted to add my voice to the chorus of praise for the training we received. it has been a very long time since I have enjoyed training as much as I enjoyed this. What added to the enjoyment was the company and enthusiasm of my fellow course participants.

Mediation involves families in conflict working out arrangements for themselves and their children with the help of neutral and skilled mediators. The aim of mediation is to reach an agreement which is mutually acceptable to the parties within the broad range of that which a court would be likely to approve.
