As the Legal Services Corporation funded program in the Washington State Alliance for Equal Justice, NJP's mission is to provide high quality free legal services on priority problems to eligible low-income clients, either directly or through efficient and effective referrals. Read NJP's Guiding Principles to learn more about our organization's philosophy. NJP is principally funded by Congress through the national Legal Services Corporation (LSC). NJP works in partnership with the Washington State Alliance for Equal Justice to serve its diverse client community. Clients in need of interpreter services in order to access legal services through NJP are entitled to those services. In addition to providing direct legal services to clients, NJP has become a pioneer in integrating new technologies into the delivery of legal services. NJP operates a toll free intake and referral system called CLEAR (Coordinated Legal Education Advice and Referral), which serves as a critical point of access for clients throughout the state to obtain free legal help, including advice, brief legal service, and, where available, a referral for further representation. In addition, CLEAR maintains an extensive library of legal resources and self-help materials which are provided to callers as appropriate. NJP has a proven track record in working to provide access to our civil justice system. Seventy-five percent of all the work completed by NJP involves cases that threaten family safety and security, including domestic violence, child custody rights and child support, and cases relating to housing issues such as foreclosures and unlawful evictions. NJP is committed to a policy of equal opportunity. It strives to foster an environment free of barriers and discriminatory practices for its clients, Board and staff. NJP actively promotes mutual respect, acceptance, teamwork and productivity.
