Maricopa Heat Relief Map: Lifeline for Valley Residents
Description
The Maricopa Association of Governments releases its annual heat relief map this Friday, identifying cooling centers, hydration stations, and respite centers across the Valley from May to September. Last year, 427 heat-related deaths were recorded, with most victims being middle-aged men. Cities like Phoenix are stepping up to protect vulnerable residents, offering resources such as cooling spots, rides, bill aid, and A/C fixes. The Heat Respite Center at 20 West Jackson Street in Phoenix is open 24/7, and additional spots are available at the Justa Center and Cholla Library. Volunteers can donate supplies or become partners to run a center.
