The Association for Conflict Resolution – Greater Philadelphia Chapter (ACR Philly) brings together mediators, arbitrators, other conflict‑resolution practitioners, trainers, and educators committed to strengthening the prevention, management, and constructive resolution of conflicts across our region. We support volunteer and professional practitioners across Pennsylvania, South Jersey, and Delaware from diverse backgrounds, including psychology, law, medicine, education, clergy, and community leadership.
Mission
We promote effective, ethical, and accessible services by:
- Providing education, peer learning, and professional development
- Hosting facilitated discussions, speakers, and skill‑building programs
- Introducing ADR (Appropriate Dispute Resolution) options to businesses, organizations, communities, schools and neighborhoods
- Supporting a diverse and inclusive community of practitioners
Commitment
We are member‑driven. We design and deliver programs and activities that meet real needs and expand opportunities not available elsewhere. We are actively growing our membership to better reflect the communities we serve.
Meetings
Most Chapter meetings are currently virtual. Every Chapter member is welcome to attend, whether you are a seasoned practitioner, interested in becoming a practitioner, or a member of the community.
