BE PART OF THE CHANGE!
It is now estimated that about 60% – 80% of family law litigants are self-represented. Many of these families cannot afford representation. The court system can be a difficult, lengthy and unpredictable process. It often increases the intensity of conflict between family members, leaving them financially and emotionally exhausted. For low income families, access to justice is even more challenging. YOUR SUPPORT IS VITAL!l

Conflict allows us the opportunity to understand viewpoints. Resolution confirms we can move on.

Mayor John Henry City of Oshawa

The Family Mediation Resource Centre is just that, a resource to members of our community that are reaching out for assistance in resolving a situation that is challenging for them. Resources like this can help people deal with difficult situations in their lives, possibly preventing them from having to enter the traditional court system for resolution.

Inspector Dean Bertrim Central East Division of Durham Regional Police

As a police officer, I appreciate the important role that mediation and mediators can play in helping individuals, families and children, navigate through difficult situations with less conflict and personal trauma. Thank you to the special few who take on this challenge in their communities.

Uday Jaswal Durham Regional Police Deputy Chief

Unfortunately, where there are people - there is always the potential for conflict. Conflict knows no boundaries. It is no respecter of persons. It cannot and perhaps ought not to be avoided, for it can be transformed into opportunity, when facilitated through skillful hands ... What better place to start - to bring resolution, than in your own backyard - your neighbourhood - your community. The training you will receive is just the beginning of your journey that will bring hope, healing and peace in conflict.

Marty Klein Family Lawyer and Deputy Judge, Accredited Family Mediator

Conflict is a natural part of life and an essential component of change. The ability to manage and resolve conflict, then, is vital to the development of healthy individuals and communities.
