Leading the Way in Mediation Instruction
In 1987, CDSS designed and implemented the Criminal Court Mediation programs of Wake, Vance, Warren, Granville and Franklin Counties. Thousands of civil and criminal cases have been resolved through these programs, easing overcrowded dockets and affording the courts needed time to try cases that must be resolved through trial. CDSS trains mediators and administers this vital program.
In 1999, CDSS developed The UNC Health Care/Employee Grievance Mediation and Panel Hearing Program. CDSS has trained selected employees in conflict resolution to assist in resolving employee grievances. This program reduced employee grievances by more then two-thirds.
