$20.00
Free to members, $20 for non-members. At 11amCT/12pmET: Peer mediation programs can potentially enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the juvenile court system. Peer mediators can offer a unique approach to conflict resolution, addressing the underlying issues most prevalent with juvenile offenders, and providing a safe [enough] platform that supports relating through shared experiences. Integrating a peer mediation process can serve to reduce recidivism rates, improve self-worth, foster accountability, and help mitigate the adversarial dynamic of the juvenile court system. This event will be followed at 12pmCT/1pmET by our regular TAPM Member Meeting. We hope you can join us for networking and fellowship! 1 hour of CME/CLE pending.
