Assisted Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a process that creates mutually satisfying solutions for resolving conflicts through specific strategies and interventions. ADR uses communication, collaboration, and mediation to produce an agreement that meets the interests of both parents and Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) involved in a dispute.

The Fresno County SELPA will provide leadership in and facilitate the Assisted Dispute Resolution Process to help resolve conflicts between schools and parents of students receiving special education services.
