Welcome!

The Heartland Mediators Association (HMA) is a not-for-profit organization, that brings together individuals in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska and surrounding states who share a common interest in mediation as an alternate form of dispute resolution.

  • Persons with expertise in facilitating collaborative problem-solving.
  • Aware that informal discussions are less intimidating than court appearances.
  • Advocates for the resolving of disputes in ways other than litigation.

Benefits of membership in HMA are:

Membership is open to any person involved in mediation or interested in pursuing a career in mediation.
