Out of the 1095 calls 250 were LEAP clients and many more were full representation clients. LEAP offers legal advice and direction thought the development of the client's cases. LEAP meets the needs of many disadvantaged Vermonters to whom HJWT cannot provide full representation because of limited number of attorneys HJWT is able to employ under current funding. Legal and social services are provided with matters such as relief from abuse, divorce, child support, visitation, and guardianship. Both telephone and in-person assistance is provided under the Legal Empowerment Assistance Program (LEAP). In addition to 1 attorney, 1 legal intern, and 1 administrative assistant who are paid employees, HJWT has law student interns volunteer each year.

HJWT provides program services in the North East Kingdom area in Vermont which serves Caledonia, Essex, Lamoille, and Orleans counties. The services are provided by a half time attorney and a paralegal client services coordinator that is housed in the Vershire Vermont office. With a total of 310 calls, the staff attorney provided full representation services for 101 clients. The Northeast Kingdomis the most rural and disadvantaged area in Vermont. Isolated living conditions and severely restricted resources combined with poverty, unemployment, and limited literacy, create a daunting set of obstacles for people trying to leave abusive situations. In many isolated Vermont villages, especially in the NEK area in Vermont, women are still seen as second class citizens whose purpose in life is to get married, raise children and be subservient to their husbands. HJWT gives abused women the opportunities, help them develop the skills they need, and encourage them along every step they need to take to become independent and self-sustaining.
