PJLC Opens Office in Santa Ana to Support Growing Work
The Peace and Justice Law Center (PJLC) has opened a new, dedicated office in Santa Ana, marking an important milestone in the organization’s continued growth and expanding impact in Orange County and beyond. The move allows PJLC to meet with more clients and partners in person and better support its expanding legal and community work.
The new office is located in the Civic Center Plaza Towers, directly across the street from Santa Ana City Hall and the Central Justice Center. The location and increased office space make it easier for clients and community members to access PJLC’s services and for staff to conduct in-person meetings. Having a permanent, standalone space reflects the expansion of PJLC’s legal, policy, and movement-support work and strengthens the organization’s ability to serve community members, partners, and clients more effectively.
In addition to housing the day-to-day work of two full-time staff members, the new office includes a conference room that will primarily be used for client meetings and coalition convenings with allied organizations and community groups. This shared space is intended to support collaboration, organizing, and coordination among partners working toward racial justice, public safety, and accountability.
As PJLC’s caseload and partnerships continue to grow, the new office provides the infrastructure needed to sustain long-term legal advocacy while remaining accessible to the communities most impacted by the issues the organization addresses. This move reflects PJLC’s commitment to building durable, long-term capacity for impact. While the new office meets immediate needs, it was selected with future growth in mind, as PJLC plans to bring on additional attorneys and continue expanding its work in the years ahead.
