CADR Program Goals

The CADR program strives to produce sustainable decisions by effectively engaging others in their stewardship; and working collaboratively to prevent, manage and resolve conflict at the lowest possible levels.  To do this, CADR embraces a range of activities outside of conventional planning and litigation.  For example, we may use mediation, stakeholder working groups or joint fact-finding, often with assistance from a neutral, third party.
