We are so excited for this connection with Ag Women Connect! This collaboration will assist with expanding awareness of dispute resolution services to rural Texas. The Office of Dispute Resolution has been appointed as the USDA Certified Mediation Program for Texas since 2000, and we appreciate the continued designation from Governor Abbott. Without the support from the Lubbock County Board of Judges and Commissioners’ Court, this statewide service would not be possible.
