Staying Cool & Safe During a Heat Advisory

Stay hydrated — drink water regularly, even if not thirsty; skip alcohol and excess caffeine
Find A/C — spend peak heat hours in an air-conditioned space (library, mall, cooling center); check kitsapdem.com for local cooling centers
Time it right — do outdoor activity/exercise/yard work early morning or evening, not midday
Block the sun — close blinds/curtains on sun-facing windows during the day; use fans to circulate air
Dress light — lightweight, loose, light-colored clothing; wear a hat and sunscreen outdoors
Check on others — elderly neighbors, people living alone, and anyone without A/C
Protect kids & pets — never leave them in a parked car, even briefly; pets need shade, water, and a break from hot pavement
Know the signs
Heat exhaustion: heavy sweating, weakness, nausea, cool/clammy skin → move to shade, sip water, cool cloths
Heat stroke (emergency): high body temp, hot/dry skin, confusion, rapid pulse → call 911 immediately
Stay informed — check weather.gov/sew for current advisories and kitsap.gov for local alerts

📊 The results are in! Our community's Healthy Youth Survey just wrapped up, and the findings give us a real snapshot of how our young people are doing — physically, mentally, and socially. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑

Curious what today's youth are telling us? The data might surprise you (in good ways and eye-opening ones!). 👇

Let's keep the conversation going — healthier, happier youth starts with all of us paying attention. 💙
