Mediation Clinic

The Mediation Clinic provides an opportunity for students to acquire skills and real-world experience in mediation. In addition to the intensive training component, students will participate in the mentorship component of the course, which takes place primarily at the Alachua County Family/Civil Justice Center on Friday mornings. Students will observe and participate as co-mediators for actual small claims cases, including landlord-tenant, auto accident, insurance, credit card debt, and neighborhood issues. Additionally, with the completion of all the prerequisites, students may acquire status as a Mediator certified by the Florida Supreme Court.
