PJALS Summer Shutdown: August 8–17

At PJALS, we believe that building a just world also means creating sustainable ways to do the work. Rest is not separate from movement building—it is an essential part of it.

To support the wellbeing of our staff and help prevent burnout, PJALS will be observing our annual Summer Shutdown from Saturday, August 8, through Monday, August 17. During this time, our office will be closed, and staff will not be responding to emails, phone calls, or social media messages.

We will resume our regular hours on Tuesday, August 18.

Taking intentional time to rest allows our team to return refreshed and ready to continue organizing, advocating, educating, and building community alongside you. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we take this collective pause.

If you need to reach us before the shutdown, please contact us by Friday, August 7. Messages received during the shutdown will be returned as soon as possible after we reopen.

Thank you for supporting a workplace culture that values rest, sustainability, and the long-term health of our movement. We look forward to reconnecting with you on August 18.
