Reliant and City of Dallas Open Beat the Heat
| What | For the 13th year, Reliant’s Beat the Heat program will help residents of South and West Dallas stay cool and manage their electricity use during the hot summer months ahead. As prices continue to rise in every area of the economy, programs like these will be more critical than ever to provide Dallas-area seniors and vulnerable residents the support they need.

Residents can call West Dallas Multipurpose Center at 214-670-6341 or MLK Jr. Community Center at 214-670-8418 to apply for a portable AC unit. |
