Family & Community Mediation is offering Domestic Violence Screening for Mediators, a course designed to help meet the requirements to apply to the Court Alternative Dispute Resolution Services (CADRES) roster and assist all mediators with this essential skill.

This course is designed to meet the eight (8) hour CADRES roster training requirement for domestic violence (DV). Through this course, mediators will learn how to:

■ define DV, its role in communication with Demonstration and practice in methods of screening;

■ help the mediator determine if there is a history of DV in the relationship

■ strategies for what and how to mediate if there is a DV history; and

■ designing a safety plan for before, during and after the mediation session.
