The Heat Is HERE

Did you miss it?? Yeah, neither did we! Alas, it seems like the season is upon us.

At home, we're checking our car batteries, testing our AC units, and dusting off our summer wardrobe.

Across the valley, our unhoused neighbors are looking for ways to stay safe, cool, and hydrated to make it through another blazing Arizona summer. Meanwhile, the Maricopa County Heat Relief Network gears up to help meet those needs.

At Key Campus, we're stocking up on heat relief kits, finishing construction to optimize shade, and refresher training staff on emergency heat illness response procedures.

Whew!!

What we do love about this season, is how our Valley community responds: with compassion, dedication, and a deeply held sense of humanity.

At Keys to Change, we like to say that in the summer time, "heat relief is everyone's job."

If you're looking for ways to get involved this summer, we want to hear from you! The time is now.

Read below to learn about our most pressing needs, and how you can be a part of the solutions.
