In 2014, Arkansas Community Dispute Resolution Centers, Inc. (ACDRC) was one of six recipients of a two-year JAMS/NAFCM Mini-Grant to fund the development and refinement of innovative and emerging community mediation services that could be replicated by community mediation programs throughout the country as a path for sustainability and growth for the field of community mediation.  The JAMS/NAFCM Mini-Grant Program sought proposals in 2014 from organizations wishing to develop services for veterans and their military families.  The Arkansas Veterans Hospital Veterans Day Treatment Center in downtown Little Rock was chosen as the target place for enhancement for the Arkansas Community Dispute Resolution Centers, Inc. (ACDRC) Veterans Legal Advocacy and Mediation Program (VLAMP).  Many veterans who use the Veterans Day Treatment Center are homeless or at-risk for homelessness with various unresolved legal issues frequently related to ongoing unresolved relational conflicts.
