Early Settlement Mediation is a state-funded program that operates under the Authority of the Oklahoma Dispute Resolution Act. This program provides free mediation services to anyone in Oklahoma experiencing conflict in and out of the court system. All of our mediators are volunteers in the communities we serve that receive free mediation training and become certified mediators.
The East Central Program provides mediation services for Pontotoc, Pottawatomie, Seminole, Garvin, Hughes, Coal and Okfuskee Counties. Anyone can request a mediation for free. Across the entire State of Oklahoma Early Settlement Mediation Programs helped mediate over 5,800 cases in the 2018-2019 fiscal year. We are always looking for more volunteers eager to become peacemakers!
