In Galveston County, we know community matters. During extreme heat, checking on others—especially the elderly, individuals with disabilities, and those without A/C—can be lifesaving.
Tips to Stay Connected and Safe:
-
Set a daily check-in schedule with elderly relatives or neighbors.
-
Help others find cooling centers or resources.
-
Offer rides or assistance for those needing help escaping the heat.
Community Tip: The Galveston County Health District provides local health updates and services - visit their website or follow their alerts during heat events here.
Working together keeps everyone safer—be the reason someone stays healthy this summer.
