Stop Now And Plan (SNAP) is an evidence-based trauma-informed model that teaches children aged 6-11 with disruptive behaviours and their parents how to make better choices “in the moment.”
Throughout its partnership with SNAP, LEAP has provided guidance and mentoring in several key areas to support SNAP’s sustainability and growth. In 2021, these supports included the refinement of SNAP’s government relations and fundraising strategies, the development of international SNAP Affiliate pricing models, and coaching and capacity building.
Despite COVID-19, SNAP successfully achieved its 5-year (2017 – 2021) SNAP National Expansion target to bring SNAP to 100 communities across Canada in May 2021 (seven months ahead of schedule). Currently, SNAP has implemented a total of 120 SNAP Canadian and 27 international sites (Cayman Islands, United States, UK, The Netherlands).

Up With Women enables recently homeless and at-risk women to exit poverty and achieve financial self-reliance.
In the eighteen months since it began partnering with LEAP, Up With Women has made significant strides in its scaling plans to help more women escape poverty. LEAP has worked with Up With Women to lay the foundation for growth through improved systems, processes and policies, expanding its reach to over 200 clients this year, compared to 70 at the outset of the partnership. Additionally, LEAP has unlocked pro-bono expertise through its sector partners, leveraging skill-based support in technology and fundraising. COVID-19 has presented both challenges and opportunities for Up With Women, which has traditionally serviced its clients in person. LEAP provided technical and legal support as Up With Women adapted its programming to a virtual model; it is now able to scale at an accelerated rate and has ambitious goals to serve 10,000 women by 2025.

The Smoking Treatment Optimization Program (STOP) provides smoking cessation treatment and counselling support to people across Ontario who want to quit.
STOP’s vision of delivering its entire smoking cessation process virtually was accelerated during the pandemic; the number of patients enrolled in its virtual care model increased more than tenfold. This trend is expected to continue and enable STOP to deepen its impact and help more patients who want to quit smoking.
With LEAP’s strategic guidance, STOP aims to grow its presence from an Ontario-based program to a national one, and treat over two million patients over the next 20 years.
In co-creating STOP’s 5-year growth strategy, LEAP conducted market research into new channel segments and identified funding sources through private and public partnerships.
