Resources for Mediators and Other Professionals Working with Separated Families

Family Mediation Week is a great opportunity to share resources and so we have posted those referenced in seminars, blogs etc where we have permission to do so.

All these resources have been recommended & shared by a FMC Registered Mediator; it should not be assumed that they are endorsed by the FMC, as it does not have capacity to check each resource. Mediators are therefore encouraged to make their own judgments about if and when these resources may be helpful.
