Title	Supporting Family Strength: The Use of Transformative Mediation in a PINS Mediation Clinic
URL	http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10....
Description	This article describes, and explains the rationales for, the establishment of an innovative program... that uses the transformative model of mediation to serve clients in cases that seem ideally suited to benefit from this approach to practice, so-called PINS (persons in need of supervision) cases involving conflict within families, between parents and their adolescent children. The article offers a brief introduction to the unique features of the transformative approach to mediation and explains why that approach in particular is likely to mesh with current understandings of the needs of the families involved in these cases." -- from Abstract
