Things to know about air quality in DC (7/17):
1. We’re currently in Code Purple.
2. We're advising sensitive groups to stay indoors as much as possible and all other groups to limit both time outside and to avoid heavy exertion activities. If you must go outside, wear a mask.
3. All DC Gov outdoor activities cancelled; outdoor pools and spray parks are closed.
Mayor's Office of Racial Equity retweeted
It’s going to be HOT again today, with extremely poor air quality.
If you're concerned about a neighbor experiencing homelessness, or if you need free transportation to a shelter or day center, call the Shelter Hotline at 202-399-7093 or 311.
Mayor's Office of Racial Equity retweeted
Today’s air quality is Code Purple, which means air pollution is unhealthy for the general public, and especially sensitive groups, including children, older adults and people with heart or lung disease. Sensitive groups should avoid prolonged or heavy outdoor exertion.
The advisory is partially due to incoming wildfire smoke combined with the area’s ozone levels. Visit airnow.gov to stay up to date on air quality changes.
Mayor's Office of Racial Equity retweeted
When you call the DC Shelter Hotline, you can request free, accessible transportation to a cooling center for yourself or a neighbor in need.
We're experience extreme heat in our city—make sure you have the number saved: (202) 399-7093

If it's too hot for you outside, it's too hot for your pets, too.

Tim White embodied public service at its very best.
From leading the Office of East of the River Development to advancing affordable housing efforts across the District, Tim's work helped shape our city for the better. He was humble, kind, and passionate about delivering for our residents and the city he loved.
Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with his family, friends, and loved ones at this time.

Five years. One mission.
Celebrating five years of the Mayor’s Office of Racial Equity.
Under the leadership of Mayor Muriel Bowser, the Mayor’s Office of Racial Equity was established to advance fairness and accountability across DC government. The Office also carries forward the REACH Act by embedding racial equity into how policies are designed, budgets are developed, and decisions are made across the District.
From the District’s first Racial Equity Action Plan to pay equity advancements, expanded language access, and environmental justice milestones, this work continues to strengthen outcomes for DC residents.
