History

The Peel Family Mediation Service was created to meet the demand for accessible quality family law mediation and public education services in Peel.  It is the result of the work of judges, lawyers, social workers, mediators and others who serve those going through family breakdowns. 

We were created to be the operational arm of the Peel Family Mediation and Parent Education Program.  We continue the Programs work as an independent organization, while to continuing to work in collaboration with the other partners in the Program.
