Due to the high heat index, Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens is helping New Yorkers stay cool and beat the heat by having our 17 Senior Centers throughout Brooklyn and Queens serve as Cooling Centers. Most are open until about 4:00 p.m. but several sites will have extended hours to 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. to better serve our neighbors. All are welcome!
Recently, Currents news correspondent Michelle Powers spoke with our seniors about the importance of staying cool during temperature spikes. Visit our video page to see the news clip.
