Ontario
Association for Family Mediation - Ottawa Chapter
Policy Statement (as at January,1998)
Mediators who help families deal
with marital separation and divorce sometimes restrict
their practice to specific areas according to their training
and expertise.
WE BELIEVE FAMILIES ARE BEST SERVED
BY USING MEDIATION SERVICES FROM A TRAINED MEDIATOR TO
DEAL WITH THE ISSUES AT HAND. WE ALSO BELIEVE CHILDREN
COME FIRST AND THEIR ISSUES SHOULD BE GIVEN PRIORITY
IN ANY MEDIATION SERVICE.
FAMILY RELATIONS MEDIATORS who typically
have a background in counselling and child development
deal with:
- parenting issues after separation
and divorce
- inter-family disputes, including
parent-child and inter-generational conflict
- child protection issues
FINANCIAL FAMILY MEDIATORS who typically
have a legal background deal with:
- financial issues of child and
spousal support after separation
- division of property after separation
- other financial or business disputes
COMPREHENSIVE FAMILY MEDIATORS who
have training in both areas provide comprehensive services,
and other mediators form partnerships to provide comprehensive
services through co-mediation.
IT IS ADVISABLE THAT CONSUMERS DETERMINE
THE TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE OF POSSIBLE MEDIATORS PRIOR
TO RETAINING THEIR SERVICES.
