Presentations were made to a range of different audiences including community groups, police, NGOs and law students at Charles Darwin University. Presentations are made with the aim of promoting the work of the CJC and increasing community awareness of mediation as a form of dispute resolution and establish referral pathways. 2. Mail outs The CJC continued to send letters and emails to various stakeholders, community groups and organisations. Items enclosed within that letter may include the following: (1) CJC brochures; (2) Posters; (3) Preparing for Mediation; resource to better prepare parties to resolve disputes; (4) CJC Fact Sheets which outline: (i) the mediation process; (ii) what to expect when attending a mediation; (iii) the CJCs process in organising mediations; and (iv) case studies. The mail outs also invite services to contact CJC and arrange for CJC to deliver presentations and workshops about CJC services, mediation training and associated skill sets. Mail outs have been sent to police stations, sporting and social clubs, neighbourhood watch, multicultural groups and special interest organisations, law firms, real estate agents, body corporate management companies, schools, electorate offices, Shire councils, local government and child care centres. b.
