Numerous Collaborative Decision-making (CDM) processes are available and are designed to empower families\, including youth\, to participate actively in decision-making that impacts them. CDM processes include mediation\, family group conferences (FGCs)\, family case planning conferences (FCPCs)\, youth transition conferences\, and traditional decision-making. \nWith so many options\, it can be very difficult for families to navigate process choice. When would it be better to request mediation instead of an FGC? When and where can one ask for a youth transition conference? \nParticipants will learn more about existing collaborative decision-making processes and how to assist clients to choose the process(es) that best supports them. Speakers will share information about navigation services\, research into “early” and preventative mediation\, and how to best support clients in preparing for and participating in these processes. \nSpeakers will also discuss examples of changes and increased opportunities for CDM\, as First Nations exercise jurisdiction for their children and develop legislation to guide decision-making in this area. \nLegal advocates\, please contact Customer Service for a special price. \nMediate BC Roster mediators will receive 20% off the full regular course registration fee. Please contact Customer Service to register. \nLaw Society of BC CPD Hours: 3.5 hours (a minimum of 1 hour pertaining to professional responsibility and ethics\, client care and relations\, and/or practice management). Please note: The CPD hours of the rebroadcast will either meet or exceed the CPD hours of the original live webinar course. \nCourse Instructors\nLori Frank\, RRM — Director of Child Welfare Initiatives\, Mediate BC and Lori Frank Mediation & Consulting\, Victoria\nSharon Sutherland\, RRM — Executive Director\, Mediate BC\, Tsawwassen\nRowena Veylan — Indigenous Initiatives Lead\, Mediate BC\, North Vancouver \nJust want the materials from the course?\nSubscribe to Online Course Materials and access 5\,400+ papers produced for CLEBC courses since 2001.
