Civil Legal Helpline

PLEASE NOTE: as of April 25, 2025, the federal government cut our AmeriCorps program, whose members staffed our Help Line. As a result, we have been forced to shut it down. We know this is inconvenient, and we are sorry. Please stop by the MJC in person for help. Thank you for understanding.
