Mediator training offered

Southeastern Dispute Resolution Service (SDRS) is looking for volunteer mediators to join the team in Jackson, Lenawee, Hillsdale, and Monroe Counties. Mediators are needed to help with small claims issues, tenant/landlord cases, contractual disputes or faulty repair complaints, probate issues, parenting time/divorce related issues, juvenile issues referred by the courts and broad range of school issues, including Special Education. There is a great need for more mediators in Hillsdale, Jackson, Lenawee and Monroe counties, especially with school and family matters. Mediator training takes 40 hours to complete, and once completed, mediators are certified to mediate disputes anywhere in the state of Michigan. The certification process also includes a 10-hour internship/observation period and several co-mediations. The next mediator training will be at United Way of Jackson, 536 N Jackson St, on April 25, 26, and 27, and May 2, 3, and 4. The fee is $150 for people who will commit to volunteering 25 hours, and $600 for attorneys and other professionals who do not commit to being a volunteer, but want the training for professional development.
