| IRS990/MissionDesc | 0 | The mission of Have Justice Will Travel, Inc. (HJWT) is to stop the generational cycle of abuse in rural American families, including adults and children, by bridging the legal, geographical, cultural, psychological, and economic gaps that exist for victims of family violence by providing free legal and social services, in-home consultations, and transportation to victims and survivors of abuse. The best measure of HJWT's success is that 90% of the women served do not go onto or return to other abusive relationships. |

| IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc | 0 | 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 196 calls, the staff attorney provided full representation services for 34 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. |
