Upcoming events from Mediate BC’s Child Welfare Initiatives.
Collaborative Decision-Making options are out-of-court processes that encourage families to share their voices in decision-making about child welfare matters.
In this workshop, you will learn more about what Collaborative Decision-Making Processes are, how your clients can access them, and how these processes can be tailored to meet your clients’ needs. You will also have the opportunity to ask our team any questions about Collaborative Decision-Making Processes, discuss issues you’ve faced accessing or engaging with these processes, and connect with other service providers working in child welfare.
Workshops are regularly scheduled across British Columbia and hosted online. We may be able to deliver this workshop to your organization. Please contact us for more details.

Mediate BC receives many calls every week from members of the public who want to understand how mediation works, how to select a mediator, how to ask another person to mediate, and many more questions about how to access the tools to solve their problems collaboratively. We have free online clinics where you can have your questions answered directly by a Registered Roster Mediator (RRM) and discuss your specific circumstances with them.
Mediate BC serves communities across the lands of many Indigenous peoples, unceded, unsurrendered, and treaty. We are committed to advancing Indigenous sovereignty, inherent rights and self-determination. In order to do this, we commit to deepening our understanding of the histories and cultures of Indigenous peoples and the ongoing effects of colonization. Further, we commit to developing meaningful dialogue and relationships founded on respect.
