In 2021, the summer heat dome killed 69 people in Multnomah County. After this harrowing time, the counties of Clackamas, Multnomah, and Washington teamed up to develop an annual heat watch report. To my surprise, the hottest areas in our region were suburban cities near highways. I’d like to do some type of service project that identifies the places that are most vulnerable to extreme heat and work to support the people who live there.
