Emergency Cooling Centers and water distribution areas are established throughout Maricopa County during the summer from May 1 - September 30 and extreme heat events for those who do not have access to indoor cool environments. Cooling centers can be community centers, churches, and other community-based organizations that provide water and serve as a safe, cool indoor place during the day for refuge from the heat. Please visit the Heat Relief Regional Network to learn more. Donation sites accept water and other supplies in need. The Heat Relief map will return next season starting May 1, 2024.
