• Extreme heat is more than a weather issue — it’s a maternal and infant health issue. ☀️

Pregnant people are especially vulnerable to heat-related illness, dehydration, and pregnancy complications during periods of extreme heat. This National Heat Awareness Day, we’re raising awareness on how rising temperatures impact maternal and infant health in Miami-Dade County — and sharing ways our community can stay safe.
Hydration, rest, shade, and access to cooling spaces can make a life-saving difference.
