The Extreme Heat Cooling Center Project aims to improve the environmental quality of underserved communities by strategically targeting neighborhoods that experience high rates of homelessness or access to cooling. The establishment of the cooling centers and hydration stations prevents heat-related illnesses and deaths among vulnerable populations. These centers and stations also provide information on how to avoid heat-related illness.
