The Public Justice Center will be closed from December 24, 2025, through January 2, 2026, for our winter restoration week because rest is resistance. Our office will re-open on Monday, January 5, 2026, for normal business hours (9:00 am - 5:00 pm). If you need immediate legal assistance during this closure, call 2-1-1 or contact Maryland Legal Aid at 888-465-2468. For help with and information about applying for SNAP benefits, reporting EBT theft, and filing appeals on benefits issues, contact an organization authorized by the State of Maryland or use the PJC’s self-help resources. For other matters, please leave a voicemail, and we’ll return your call when the office reopens the week of January 5.
