meet basic needs by ensuring air-conditioned space, hydration, and food are available to
allow people to recover from heat exposure.

2. BACKGROUND
In 2005, the Heat Relief Network (HRN) was established in response to a heatwave
responsible for 45 deaths in the month of July and more than 30 deaths among people
experiencing homelessness. The HRN is a voluntary network of service providers, faith-
based organizations, local governments, and non-profit organizations with the goal of
preventing heat-related deaths and heat-related illness.

Tragically, the number of heat-related deaths has reached record numbers every year
since 2014, with 425 deaths in 2022, a 25% increase from 2021. While data are still
incomplete, the 2023 heat season was especially deadly, with at least 640 confirmed heat-
related deaths. Of those deaths, 74% occurred outdoors and 45% were identified as
experiencing homelessness, with an additional 13% having unknown housing status. The
2023 heat season was also the hottest season on record with 31 consecutive days and
54 total days over 110 °F, with several nighttime lows exceeding 90 °F.

According to the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center Seasonal
Temperature Outlook Forecasts released January 18, 2024, the 2024 heat season is
predicted to be leaning toward above normal temperatures, underscoring the need to
anticipate and prepare for extreme summer temperatures to prevent heat-related illnesses
and deaths. The County’s goal is to increase access to heat relief in locations that are
accessible to those most in need of services by increasing the number of heat relief
locations and expanding heat relief center hours of operation to cover all regions 7 days
per week during high heat hours. The heat relief locations shall meet basic needs by
ensuring air-conditioned space, hydration, and food are available to allow people to
recover from heat exposure.

3. SCOPE OF WORK
