The Domestic Violence Task Force works to educate private practitioners to develop awareness of the concerns inherent in domestic violence cases, train them how to discern signs that indicate the existence of domestic violence and how to respond accordingly.


Ethics and Standards.  Rachel Green ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ), Chair

The Ethics and Standards Committee works to maintain the high level of mediation standards expected of our members.  The Committee is set up to handle complaints from mediators, mediation participants and members of the public regarding mediation practice that is not consistent with the Model Standards for Family and Divorce Mediators that all members of FDMCGNY have pledged to follow.  The Committee communicates information to any mediator about whom the Committee receives a complaint, while preserving confidentiality, and provides peer review and referrals to mediation education, where appropriate.

Government Affairs.  Robert Collins,  ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ), Chair

  2. Study legislation and comment on its effect on the field.

  4. Work with legislative committees of other organizations to present a unified voice of the mediation community in our region.
  5. Help support new legislation that will better serve divorcing parties and their children.
