Mediation in the Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgendered and/or Intersexed (GLBTI) Community

This month's presentation, Evolutions and Earthquakes: Mediation in the GLBTI Community, will feature members of the Community Dispute Settlement Center who have pioneered developing, promoting, and delivering mediation to the GLBTI (Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgendered and/or Intersexed) community for more than a decade.

Cynthia Bauman, Court Coordinator, Gail Packer, Executive Director, and Jack Wofford, President, will facilitate a program that explores an overview of the issues involved in mediating in the GLBTI community, including challenging practice considerations, landmark legal cases, and emerging issues.

Following the DRF is a Peervision case with Patricia Plettner, a psychotherapist and mediator from Dallas, Texas, who will present a case involving a mediator serving in the limited role as an Allied Professional to assist in an impasse that has occurred during the collaborative law divorce process.

Please RSVP to Kim Wright, klwright@law.harvard.edu, or by fax to (617) 495-7818.
