INTRODUCTION The Community Dispute Resolution Centers Program (CDRCP) is an unit of the New York State Unified Court System Office of Alternative Dispute Resolution Programs (OADR). A goal of the CDRCP is to provide access for all New Yorkers to free or affordable alternative dispute resolution services including mediation, arbitration, multi-party facilitation, training, conflict coaching and restorative practices. Established in 1981, the CDRCP funds independent not-for-profit agencies – Community Dispute Resolution Centers (CDRCs) – in every county of New York State. Many common types of disputes, such as neighbor disagreements, custody and visitation arrangements, and landlord-tenant issues, are well suited to mediation. While many people who have filed in court for these issues are referred to mediation, any New Yorker, regardless of whether he or she has a case pending in court, may use the services of the CDRC in his or her local area. Once a CDRC becomes aware of a dispute, either by walk-in or referral, CDRC staff members conduct interviews with the parties to explain the mediation process and determine whether the dispute is appropriate for mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process, so cases only proceed with the informed consent of all parties. The vast majority of cases handled by CDRCs are mediated by professionally-trained volunteers. These community members receive their training from mediation trainers certified by OADR. In addition to dispute resolution services, many CDRCs work in their communities to provide educational and group facilitation services.

STATISTICAL SUPPLEMENT OVERVIEW The CDRCP Statistical Supplement provides detailed statistical reports on the workload and of the CDRCs for the 2015-2016 fiscal year. It shares specific information on the types of cases handled, case outcomes, and referral sources. Some reports contain aggregate statewide case data, whereas others organize the data by county and/or judicial district. OADR collects data from every CDRC throughout the year, gathering information about the types of cases handled, who has referred them, what processes parties go through and the ulti-mate outcome of the case. In addition, OADR tracks information about the people who utilize the CDRCs, from demographic information collected about the parties. To ensure that data is reported using the same standards across the state, OADR provides CDRCs with software used for data collection, reporting and analysis. If you are printing this report, please note that Tables 3, 4, and 6-9 are in landscape orientation.
