The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has released a comprehensive guide titled “Heat Emergencies for People Experiencing Homelessness.” This resource provides crucial information for communities and service providers on how to protect homeless individuals during extreme heat events. The guide covers a range of topics, including identifying heat-related illnesses, implementing prevention strategies, and coordinating emergency response efforts. It emphasizes the importance of outreach, access to cooling centers, and tailored interventions for this vulnerable population. By offering practical advice and best practices, HUD aims to reduce heat-related health risks and fatalities among people experiencing homelessness during increasingly frequent and severe heat waves.
