I was privileged to engage in a stimulating and thought-provoking conversation with Charity Burke on Expert Views on ADR (EVA) Vid / Podcast Show. Charity is the Executive Director of the Oakland Mediation Center (OMC). She has created several conflict resolution and advanced mediation training programs for the general public, volunteers at OMC, and community members involved in special education.
With over Twenty (20) years of multi-state experience in mediation, she has successfully mediated hundreds of cases, including personal injury, special education, pre-and post-judgment divorce, adult/child guardianship, EEOC, civil rights, general civil matters, landlord/tenant, and employment. In this episode, we delved into the critical role of mediation in resolving conflict. We then explored the Oakland Mediation Centre (OMC), including its background, purpose, and operational procedures, as well as the various programs it offers, such as the Mental Health Mediation program developed for the state of Michigan.
She also Charity revealed the effectiveness of mediation in special education. Furthermore, we examined the concept of peer mediation and the potential advantages of implementing peer mediation programs. We scrutinised the selection process for student participants and what preventive measures are in place for the data of practitioners registered or who would register with the center.
Our discussion also touched on the significant impact of mediation in Oakland and the United States, including how far it has enhanced access to justice and the promotion of diversity and inclusivity in the centre while comparing the cost and time involved in settling disputes via mediation to litigation. We also explored the extent to which lawyers have embraced appropriate dispute resolution (ADR) methods. Finally, Charity revealed the training services offered or provided by the OMC to help practitioners and potential mediators hone their skills in mediation and conflict resolution.
