A powerful and revealing article about elder mediation was published on SLATE.COM  February 9, 2012. "The Ties That Blind: Elder Mediators help brothers and sisters stop fighting and make decisions about aging parents," by Robin Marantz Henig, tells the story of an aging brother and sister who chose elder mediation as a path to reconciliation. See the Elder Decisions website for more information.

The Mediators at our Mediators' Association of Galveston County meeting today were pleased to hear an intensive  mediator training on use of mediation in domestic Violence cases and Protective Order Hearings is being planned. The membership desires to sponsor this event and voted $500.00 to ACR for this event. 

Many members would also like to attend 

There  is a new mediation center in Friendswood Texas and he has offered his large conference room for this event if it meet  our needs. The room will hold about 30 -35 people.

I will have additional info on the new  mediation Center  next week
