Parent Coordination
Parenting Coordinator/Arbitrator in Calgary
Parenting Coordination/Arbitration is a child-centred dispute resolution process in which a qualified, impartial Parent Coordinator assists separated or divorced parents to implement their parenting plan and to resolve issues or conflicts that arise concerning parenting. This can include:
- Identifying disputed issues
- Reducing misunderstandings
- Clarifying priorities
- Exploring possibilities for problem-solving
- Developing methods of collaboration in parenting
- Interpreting and developing the parenting plan
- Aiding parties in complying with the agreement or court order regarding parenting
Parenting Coordination is a process that gives parents access to a neutral decision-maker who can resolve day-to-day parenting conflicts as they arise, with the goal of minimizing further conflict and additional appearances in Court. Parents in conflict can retain a Parenting Coordinator on their own initiative or be referred to by the Court.
