ACCESS
Access to this “arbitration club,” where we each represent different racial platforms across different jurisdictions, to open the door to more practitioners. One avenue is to address the socio-economic limitation for many entering our field with a focus on community building for young and mid-level practitioners.
To this end and unless deemed necessary, we will not charge a membership fee to join REAL.

We are in the process of creating a scholarship for our members to attend arbitration events and training courses.
