PEEL FAMILY MEDIATION SERVICES


Our Services

The Peel Family Mediation Services provides the following services.

For those involved in family law disputes:

Mediation Services
We provide mediation services in family law cases before the courts.

Family Law Information Session ("FLIS")
A seminar about separation, family law and alternatives to litigation.

We also provide:

Mediation Internship
We provide a 100-hour family mediation internship, which includes 20 hours of workshops. The supervision is provided by a group of mediators, who are qualified for accreditation through either the Ontario Association for Family Mediators or Family Mediation Canada. Candidates are drawn from the McMaster Mediation Certificate Program, the Osgoode Hall Master of Laws (Alternative Dispute Resolution) program and other alternative dispute resolution programs. There is a fee for the internship.

Twelve (12) mediators have completed their internship with us and another two mediators completed limited internships (as of April 2004).

Research & Outreach
We conduct research into family law mediation and the effectiveness of our services. (Primarily by graduate students from the School of Social Work, York University.)

We also reach out to the community to promote family mediation in general and increase awareness of our services in particular.
