Ill. R. Cir. Ct. Dupage Cnty. 14.35
As amended through September 23, 2024
The 18th Judicial Circuit Court Guardianship Family Engagement Mediation Program ("The Program") is designed to provide families with an active guardianship of a minor case an opportunity to participate in court-ordered mediation whereby a qualified and neutral mediator, appointed through the Court, assists the litigants in reaching mutually acceptable agreements. It is an informal and non-adversarial process. The role of the mediator includes, but is not limited to, assisting the parties in identifying issues, fostering joint problem-solving, exploring settlement alternatives, and reaching agreements that the court determines are in the best interests of the children.
