36 years of Conflict Resolution in the ACT
Conflict Resolution Service is a Canberra based not for profit organisation dedicated to preventing, managing, and resolving conflicts professionally, competently, and compassionately. We work primarily with children, youth and family to preserve family connections, reunify and strengthen relationships, and restore family harmony by reducing conflict.
We provide Family Dispute Resolution service to help separating couples navigate parenting and property matters amicably, Workplace Mediation to promote healthier working relationships, and specialist training programs that equip individuals and organisations with essential conflict resolution skills.
