The Mohawk Council of Akwesasne’s Community Health Program also issues notices when the area becomes overly hot and humid advising community members to stay indoors and out of the sun. Providing information on how to mitigate the effects of increased temperatures and UV rays can help prevent and lessen heat-related illness.
