Task Forces and Projects
CPR seeks to harness the insights and experiences of its members to prevent and resolve business disputes.
One of the many ways CPR accomplishes its mission is by convening our community of members to generate innovative and best-practice resources to prevent and resolve disputes.
If you wish to be more involved in your committee's projects or would even like to propose an important project for CPR to undertake, please contact Helena Tavares Erickson.
