Description

The mission of the NJP is to ensure justice through high quality legal advocacy that promotes the long-term well-being of low-income individuals, families and communities.

As a dynamic statewide law firm, their mission is to empower their clients and fight injustice in all its forms through legal advice and representation, community partnerships and education.

NJP generally addresses civil law problems faced by people on low incomes due to lack of income, problems with education, employment or loss of employment, disability, discrimination, consumer abuse or illegal business practices, physical or family safety, as well as barriers faced by people on low incomes in seeking public services, seeking help, or accessing the courts or other means of resolving disputes or addressing their needs.

There are no fees for clients who are financially eligible for NJP services.

NJP attorneys are paid by NJP with funds provided primarily by the federal government through the national Legal Services Corporation and by the state legislature through the Office of Civil Legal Aid.

NJP also receives limited private funding and support from the Legal Foundation of Washington and the Campaign for Equal Justice.

TeamChild shares this location.
TeamChild uses its legal expertise and community partnerships to break down barriers to community services in order to overcome the root causes of a young person's involvement in the juvenile justice system.
It is typically works with youth between the ages of 12 and 18 and is from low-income families who are involved in or at risk of involvement in the juvenile justice system.

Some of the young people they serve face criminal charges.

Some have been convicted of crimes and are on rehabilitation, probation or parole.

Other youth may have contact with a juvenile court because of addiction problems (host family), or because of a child in need of services (CHINS), at risk youth (ARY), or a petition of absenteeism.
