Joining ACR-Chicago gives you opportunities to:
• Market Your Practice
• Members Only Section on Website
Member log-in allows access to opportunities to mediate, greater Chicagoland conflict resolution trainings and events, ADR links, ADR legislative issues, and articles. Program videos, when available, are for members only.
• Keep Informed With Our Programs
Held throughout the year, these forums enable our members to keep abreast of developments in the dispute resolution field and build skills to grow as ADR practitioners. An opportunity for networking is set-aside at each meeting.
Programs are usually held in the downtown Chicago area and most are free to all members.
• Take Action Through Membership
Take the opportunity to become involved in the variety of committees that help you make an impact on the Chicago area dispute resolution community.
• Get Connected
Meet your peers and learn what others are doing in the field with the contacts you make as an ACR member. The Mentorship Program matches less experienced ACR members with experienced dispute resolution practitioners. We do this through individual pairings when possible, or through small group sessions hosted by experienced practitioners. New and renewing members who wish to participate in our Mentorship Program should indicate this on the
membership application form. Each pairing is unique and determined by the mentor and mentee but may consist of phone calls or face to face meetings. If you would like more information, please
contact us.
