Bluffton University's Mediation Program:

Part of this program includes utilizing Bluffton University resources, including students and faculty that have been through mediation training. Since the fall of 2006 more than four training weekends have been held, led by Lorraine Stutzman Amstutz (director of MCC's Office on Crime and Justice) and Barb Toews (director of Restorative Justice Programs in the Pennsylvania Prison Society).
