The Harvard Mediation Program (HMP) is a student practice and clinical organization of Harvard Law School. HMP offers mediation training and practice opportunities to a small number of community members in addition to its students. Trainees will co-mediate under the supervision of an HMP court liaison in one of the Boston area’s small claims court sessions every other week for two semesters. Trainees are required to complete HMP’s 32-hour training prior to mediating in court.
Community members may apply to become members of HMP. The first of two basic trainings for the 2009-2010 academic year will take place on October 3, 4, 17 and 18, 2009. The second basic training will be scheduled for February 2010. To receive an application, please go to the Harvard Mediation Program’s website, http://www.law.harvard.edu/academics/clinical/hmp/. The training fee is $600.00 or $300.00 for full-time students. HMP mediators provide their services on a volunteer basis.
