## Resource

Indianapolis is baking under an unusually scorching July, with temps hitting 89 degrees—its hottest July since 2012—and homeless residents like Kiera Johnson and Jeff Harris are paying the price. With no summer weather contingency plan in place, they’re forced to improvise, clearing abandoned lots for shade and dodging judgment at public cooling centers. While cities like Chicago offer air-conditioned shelters 24/7, Indianapolis’ current response leaves the unhoused scrambling for patches of shade—until they’re told they can’t even sit there anymore.
