Mediation may occur via telephone or video conferencing when appropriate and available. Mediation in these disputes is enabled through the Child, Youth and Family Enhancement Act.

Objective Brief Conflict Intervention (BCI) is a service for parties who are parenting apart and having difficulties resolving a parenting dispute. Up to ten hours of solution-focused intervention from a specialized, roster clinician is provided.
The clinician helps the parties to better understand the needs of their child(ren) during separation or divorce, to gain greater understanding of the conflict and its effects on their child(ren), and to reach an agreement (when possible) regarding their specific dispute.
The clinician may: • conduct parent, parent-child, and child sessions; • educate about child(ren)’s developmental needs and abilities and the quality
of parent-child relationships; • educate about the adverse effects of parental conflict on child development; • explore family and individual strengths; • examine problem solving skills and conflict resolution style and discuss
new possibilities or alternatives; • assist to resolve identified issues and create (or draft) parenting agreements
that may be made; • explore further options to assist the participants (i.e.: individual therapy,
courses/classes, individual assignments, access resources, etc.); • help focus on parenting in the future.
Cost There is no cost to the parties who meet the Resolution Services eligibility criteria, however the parties are expected to cover their own travel and accommodation costs, if any are required to attend appointments.
