SERVICES VARY BY PROGRAM, BUT TYPICALLY INCLUDE REACHING OUT TO MEDIATION PROPONENTS, PROVIDING EXPERT GUIDANCE FOR STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS, DRAFTING OR REFINING COURT RULES, PROVIDING SAMPLE FORMS, AND DESIGNING PROGRAM MONITORING SYSTEMS. IN SOME PROGRAMS, RSI ALSO PROVIDES SPECIALIZED TRAINING OF NEUTRALS, ON-SITE PROGRAM ADMINISTRATION, AND MONITORING AND EVALUATION SERVICES. RSI PARTNERS WITH COURTS, ATTORNEYS, MEDIATORS AND OTHER COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO DEVELOP MEDIATION PROGRAMS FOR MAJOR CIVIL LITIGATION, INCLUDING FORECLOSURE; SMALL CLAIMS, INCLUDING LANDLORD/TENANT; FAMILY, INCLUDING CHILD CUSTODY AND FINANCIAL ISSUES; CHILD PROTECTION; AND CRIMINAL AND JUVENILE CASES.
