Mediator Virtual Training
Philadelphia Landlord/Tenant Eviction Diversion Program

  • Nov. 18th - 9 am to 12:15 pm

  • Registration required. Click here for more info.

    This 3-hour CLE program will prepare attendees to serve as volunteer mediators for Philadelphia’s Eviction Diversion Program (EDP).

    The EDP provides an opportunity for landlords and tenants to participate in (free) mediation before an eviction complaint is filed.

    The workshop will provide background information as well as important updates on how EDP has evolved since it was implemented in 2020; consequently, this CLE will be useful for both new and existing volunteers.

    We will also cover the new Targeted Financial Assistance (TFA) program that provides rental assistance for some landlords who participate in EDP.

    Attorneys can receive 3 CLE credits (administered and provided by the Philadelphia Bar Association).
