 M.A.R.C.H. takes an inclusive approach to defining issues appropriate for mediation. Once parents have taken the steps to participate in mediation, the more they can accomplish as part of the process the more likely they are to be able to communicate cooperatively in the future without assistance.
The intake form used by M.A.R.C.H. contains the question, "What are the issues that you are currently experiencing disagreement about with the other parent?" with the following list of issues as examples:
- Contact or parenting time
- Children's transition: going from one parent to the other
- Safety of children
- Health of children
- Education
- Children's religious upbringing
- Discipline of children
- Children's relationship with other parent's new partner
- Communication between parents
- Conflict which is hurtful to the children
- Turning the children against a parent
- Financial support
- Transportation responsibilities
- Medical insurance
- Relocation
- Other
NOTE that there are LIMITATIONS regarding child support arrearages and deviation from presumed Form 14 child support amount and cases involving domestic violence.
