On June 2, 2014 all members of the Association for Conflict Resolution (ACR), a professional association for mediators, arbitrators, educators and other conflict resolution practitioners, received this announcement regarding their Online Dispute Resolution Section.

~~~

We are glad to let you know that we are revitalizing our ODR section and look forward to moving forward with new programs and opportunities!

We have created a new LinkedIn Group for the ACR Online Dispute Resolution Section – https://www.linkedin.com/in/acrodrsection - please join us! We would like you to participate in our ongoing ODR discussions, have you share your ideas, experiences, and articles.

We will be keeping our ACR page updated with the latest news and events as soon as we find a web chair, so please let us know if you are interested!

You can now contact our ACR ODR section directly by email – ACRODRSection@gmail.com

As of now, we are incredibly lucky to have Giuseppe Leone on our Advisory Council in charge of Programs. He is the founder and project manager of Virtual Mediation Lab.

My name is Tammy Felker Johnson and I will be serving as the Section Chair. We are looking for people interested in joining us in our journey to refresh this section. We need people that would be willing to volunteer for the Advisory Council to do the following:

>> Finance
>> Social
>> Web
>> Communication

If you are as excited as we are about these new plans for our ODR Section, please let us know if you would like the opportunity to serve on our new Advisory Council. If you are interested, please send an email to our Chair Tammy Johnson at ACRODRSection@gmail.com, with a brief description of your ODR experience and qualifications.

Thank you.

Tammy Felker Johnson and Giuseppe Leone
ACR ODR Section
