What is a Cooling Center?


On unusually hot summer days, a Cooling Center is a place where you can go to cool off. Locations include:
• Community Centers

Can I go to a Cooling Center?

Yes. Cooling Centers are for everyone, especially those at risk of getting a heat-related illness:
  •    Senior citizens
  •    People with a medical condition
  •    People with a disability
  •    Infants and young children

Be Safe in the Heat!

  •  Stay hydrated
  •  Go to a cool place like a mall or library
  •  Plan ahead — Check the weather forecast

GET OUT OF THE HEAT!
