Kitty and Art Lusse have been training mediators in their private practice and at the University of Montana Law School, Communications Studies, and MBA Program for over a decade. Both are
nationally certified by the Association for Conflict Resolution. Kitty and Art present nationally
to such organizations as the American Bar Association, the Association for
Conflict Resolution and the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts. They
maintain a private practice and consult to a variety of corporations, agencies
and non-profits. Art is an attorney and a Fulbright Scholar faculty specialist. Kitty specializes in family and
organizational conflict and school peer mediation and peacemaking programs.
Together, they founded the Community Dispute
Resolution Center of Missoula County in 1995.
The Center currently has 40 volunteer mediators offering a wide variety
of mediation services to the Missoula Community. Thanks to a grant in 2000 through “The Schools and
Communities Coming Together Project” of the Division of Educational Research
and Service (DERS) at the University of Montana, we were selected to develop Peacemaking
programs on the Northern Cheyenne and Flathead Reservations and to provide Peer
Mediation programs at the Middle and High Schools.
