The Maryland Joint Operations Center (MJOC) is organized as a branch within the Maryland Emergency Management Agency. The MJOC is a steady-state component of the State of Maryland Emergency Operations Center and functions as the State of Maryland Warning Point. Operated around-the-clock by National Guard and emergency management professionals, it was the first joint civilian-military watch center in the country. The MJOC serves as a communications hub for emergency responders and alerts decision-makers in Maryland when a situation warrants.
