CT Dispute Resolution Center holds ribbon-cutting

The San Marcos Area Chamber of Commerce recently welcomed the Central Texas Dispute Resolution Center with a ribbon-cutting event. The CTDRC provides affordable alternative dispute resolution services for over 500,000 citizens of Hays, Caldwell, Comal and Guadalupe counties. Since 2009, the center has taken a preventative approach to resolving conflict in our area. They seek to use training and community education to resolve conflict before it becomes a judicial or legal case. The Central Texas DRC does mediate cases ordered through the courts, as well as those cases referred by an attorney and initiated by a party in conflict.
