OPC Alert-Utilities, eviction prevention information, and th
Good afternoon,
Utility Moratorium: The Public Service Commission has ordered a hold on all gas/electric service terminations until June 30, 2021 for the following two groups ONLY:
1) Any customer with a signed medical certification on file with the utility.
2) Any customer who has received or been qualified to receive Office of Home Energy assistance since February 15, 2017.
See the attachment for more details.
Utility Bill Payment Help:
- Check out a video on how to keep your power on even when you are facing high utility bills.
- All utilities are offering 12-month payment plans with no down payment required. Contact your utility for more information.
- The Office of People's Counsel has created an energy assistance toolkit to help Maryland households facing utility turn-off notices. This toolkit includes videos on how to fill out the Office of Home Energy Programs application, forms, and resource guides.
For more resources, visit our website.
Free Training on helping clients pay their energy bills: OPC offers free training on client utility issues and protections to government, nonprofit, and faith based agencies. Contact me if you are interested in free training for your agency.
Utility Help for Baltimore City: Maryland Volunteer Lawyer Services, Probono Resource Center of MD and Office of People's Counsel have come together to provide remote Utility Clinics. Baltimore City residents can receive free legal advice from volunteer attorneys and from OPC staff regarding their water, gas, and/or electric bills. Attorneys will advise on issues such as unusually high or delinquent bills, bill disputes, shutoffs, and questions about financial assistance that may be available. Everything is done via phone, email, text, and mail. See the attached flyer for more information about how to connect clients to this free service. Please feel free to distribute.
Eviction Information for Tenants: Maryland Attorney General Brian E. Frosh has released “Residential Eviction in Maryland: Information for Tenants,” to help individuals and families who will be facing eviction, particularly due to nonpayment of rent during the COVID pandemic. The guidance issued by the Attorney General’s office is intended to help residential tenants understand their rights and where to look for legal help if an eviction lawsuit is filed against them.
Tax Credit: There have been changes to the Child Tax Credit that will help many families receive advance payments starting this summer. The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021 expands the Child Tax Credit (CTC) for tax year 2021 only.
For tax year 2021, eligible families claiming the CTC will receive up to $3,000 per qualifying child between the ages of 6 and 17 at the end of 2021. They will receive $3,600 per qualifying child under age 6 at the end of 2021.
Advance payments of the 2021 Child Tax Credit will be made regularly from July through December to eligible taxpayers.
For more information visit the IRS website.
Student Loans: Interest and monthly payments on federally held loans are suspended through September 30, 2021. You do not need to contact your student loan servicer or take any action on your federally held student loans. For more information visit Consumer Protection Financial Bureau.

REMINDER: Faculty Working Group
Applications due May 31st for Fall 2021
The Center for Social Science Scholarship invites
applications for Faculty Working Groups to promote intellectual exchange in the
social sciences and across campus. These collaborative scholarly learning
communities will meet regularly to engage in such activities as: working on
research projects, reading key literature, exploring new methodological
approaches, and/or engaging in matters of public interest related to the social sciences, across campus,
or with community partners.
Up to four Faculty Working Groups will be selected by the center
director and advisory board members. Groups should be faculty-led and must
include at least one faculty member from a social science department at UMBC.
Additional priority will be given to groups whose members and/or areas of
interest are multi- or interdisciplinary. Advanced graduate students may
participate as Faculty Working Group members but may not serve as leaders.
Faculty Working Groups can apply for up to $1,000 in annual
support ($500 per semester); groups will also be able to apply for continuation
funding. Groups may use funds for such items as: supporting regular group
meetings; purchasing software, books, or other materials; hosting external
speakers; creating scholarly resources; traveling to external sites for
research or public engagement purposes; and other similar activities. A brief
report of the group’s activities will be due at the end of the funding period.
Apply by May 31, 2021, for groups to begin in Fall 2021.
Click here to download the application form.

Update on GSA 21-22 Executive Council Electionn
Thank you to all who submitted nominations for the 2021-2022
Thank you to all who submitted nominations for the 2021-2022 Graduate Student Association Executive Council at UMBC. We appreciate all the time and energy students have put into their nominations and really enjoyed hearing the candidate introductions last Thursday at our "Meet The Candidates" session via WebEx! UMBC has a truly phenomenal graduate student body and we are so impressed with the abilities and experiences of those who were able to join us and share about themselves.
We are also incredibly excited that so many students have viewed the candidates introduction video, nomination materials, and participated in the process by submitting votes for their favorite candidates! As the GSA Executive Council represents all graduate students at UMBC, it is important for us to get feedback from the student body about who they feel would make a great candidate for each position.
As we continue in the process of electing the new GSA Executive Council board, we wanted to share an update to keep interested students informed. We started with a fantastic pool of 18 nominees in total, and are now down to the top 10 as we proceeded with eliminating candidates who did not meet various eligibility requirements during the verification process. Due to the removal of ineligible candidates, we now find ourselves with two open roles that will need to be filled. In a situation as unique as this, where no eligible candidates run for a particular position, the current Executive Council must nominate a candidate to serve. Generally, the best place to select these candidates from are from our GSA Senate body. We will be conducting outreach to individuals who we believe make a great candidate for the role, but we also encourage you to reach out and let us know if you, or someone you know, would be interested in serving in either position.
Lastly, as we know many of you are graduating this semester, we wanted to take a moment and congratulate you on all your hard work and on the completion of your graduate degree at UMBC! We hope that everyone, graduating or continuing on, has a fantastic summer and we wish you all the continued success in your academic and professional careers!
2020-2021 GSA Executive Council
