This year's primary presenter is Carl D. Schneider, Ph.D., director of Mediation Matters in Maryland . A mediator since 1981 and an Advanced Practitioner Member of the Association for Conflict Resolution (ACR), Carl has trained several thousand family mediators over the past twenty-three years. A passionate advocate for bringing our practice of mediation in line with our rhetoric and working to sponsor the conversation between parties, Carl has been actively involved in developing performance-based assessments of mediators. A respected trainer, Carl has presented widely at both regional and national conferences.

In addition to Dr. Schneider, this year we will feature several other esteemed presenters.  The program will begin with the Hon. James Fisher, Chief Judge Barry County Trial Court, who will provide a bench perspective on the value of mediation.

We will also hear from MACM members Guy Jacobson and Janis Herman who will discuss Muskegon County’s Parents for Life program, based on the principles of restorative justice.

The conference will conclude with a presentation by Sujata Warrier, Ph.D., Director of the New York City Program of the New York State Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence, on Cultural Considerations in Practice.
