Last month, James F. Henry, who founded the CPR Institute for Dispute Resolution, was honored with the American Bar Association's D'Alemberte/Raven Award at the U.S. Supreme Court. The award ceremony was held April 27 during the ABA's Section of Dispute Resolution annual conference. His remarks are adapted below. The award recognizes members of the dispute resolution community who have contributed significantly to the field by developing new or innovative programs, improvements in service and efficiency, research and writings in the area of dispute resolution or continuing education programs. The award is named for Talbot DAlemberte of Tallahassee, Fla., and Robert D. Raven of San Francisco, former ABA presidents and past leaders within the ABA on ADR. The speech text picks up after Henry, who founded CPR in 1979 and served as its president as well as Alternatives' publisher until he retired at the end of last year, thanked the award sponsors.
