Member benefits
If you're interested in conflict resolution -- as a practitioner, student, researcher, teacher, or professional in any line of work -- the New England chapter of the Association for Conflict Resolution will bring you two invaluable benefits: information and connection. The chapter's dues are reasonable and its members are collegial, welcoming, and supportive. Whether you're just starting out or building on years of experience, this organization will help you connect with colleagues, learn about new trends and ideas, and improve your craft.
All NE-ACR members receive:
- Access to a comprehensive calendar that lists conflict resolution-related trainings, events, and programs throughout New England
- A free listing in NE-ACR's searchable practitioner directory, available to the public
- Access to members'-only tools on the chapter's website as well as blogs, chats, and videos
- Advanced notice and reduced admission chapter programs. Recent events have featured daylong Improv exercises; Jack Wofford of Cambridge and Ona Ferguson of the Consensus Building Institute presenting a program on facilitation; and a panel discussion on foreclosure mediation in New England
- Advance notice and reduced registration for the chapter's regional conference
- An electronic subscription to NE-ACR News, the chapter's quarterly newsletter, which showcases practitioners and trends in the field
- Opportunities to socialize with colleagues old and new
